The 26-year-old will now fly to Spain to complete the move before being officially presented.
Sevilla, do not have an option to buy Martial outright, are paying a loan fee of around €6 million, according to reports.
United paid an initial £36 million fee for a teenage Martial in 2015, though a slew of bonus payments were included in the deal.
He made an emphatic start to life at United by coming off the bench to score a stunning solo goal against Liverpool and finished that season with 17 goals in all competitions.
Overall the 26-year-old has made 269 appearances for United, scoring 79 times.

His best goalscoring season came in 2019/20 when he found the net 23 times but Martial struggled to find consistency in a United shirt.
He reportedly rejected moves to stay in the Premier League, specifically Newcastle and Spurs, for a change of scenery in La Liga.
In the summer, it's claimed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer wanted to sell the player but no clubs would meet the asking price set.
Instead, winger Dan James ended up making way in a £25 million move to Leeds United.
