Man Utd ace Anthony Martial believes he will outlast Jose Mourinho, happy to sign new deal

MANCHESTER UNITED have offered a new five-year deal to Anthony Martial – despite Jose Mourinho being eager to sell the Frenchman this summer.
United want to keep Martial at Old Trafford going forward following a pre-season of speculation regarding the 22-year-old’s future.

Mourinho was angered when Martial’s agent, Philippe Lamboley, revealed the forward was keen to move having been ommitted from France’s World Cup-winning squad.

However, Manchester United have decided to offer the former Monaco ace the chance to stay put until 2023 so they can protect his transfer value.

Mourinho was angered when Martial’s agent, Philippe Lamboley, revealed the forward was keen to move having been ommitted from France’s World Cup-winning squad.

However, Manchester United have decided to offer the former Monaco ace the chance to stay put until 2023 so they can protect his transfer value.
Martial has entered the final 12 months of the initial four-year deal he put pen to paper on when joining United in the summer of 2015.
United have offered him the one-year option in his original contact on top of this season to take him to 2020, plus another three years.



Martial is happy to sign the new deal because he believes he will outlast Jose Mourinho at United.

Mourinho’s position at Old Trafford is safe for now, but he is under increasing pressure to turn around United’s worst start to a Premier League campaign since 1992.

The Portuguese wanted to offload Martial this summer and fined him two weeks wages when he returned late to the club’s US tour after leaving to attend the birth of his son, Swan, in Paris.
Martial is very much on the fringes of the first team and Mourinho hauled him off after 60 minutes in the 3-2 defeat to Brighton in his only appearance this season.

Mourinho was desperate to replace Martial with a more experienced winger as he sought to close the gap on champions Manchester City.

Gareth Bale, Willian and Ivan Perisic were all earmarked as options by the United boss.

But Ed Woodward opted against sanctioning deals for any of that trio as Mourinho endured a summer of transfer frustration.
