Fans are devastated after noticing player was missing from Man Utd's travelling 22-man squad for FA Cup final

Footage of Manchester United's travelling 22-man squad has emerged ahead of this weekend's FA Cup final against Manchester City – and fans noticed someone was missing.

Erik ten Hag's side made the two-and-a-half hour trip to London via train on Friday afternoon.

Players and staff were spotted making their way through Stockport Station, including Casemiro, Diogo Dalot, Rasmus Hojlund and Amad Diallo, who has impressed in recent weeks.

But somebody who could miss out on Saturday's clash at Wembley is Anthony Martial.

The 28-year-old forward, who is expected to leave United when his contract expires this summer, has struggled with injuries throughout his nine-year spell at Old Trafford.

In fact, Martial's last appearance for the club came against Bournemouth on December 9.

He underwent surgery on his groin in January and after a 13-week lay-off, the Frenchman returned to full training at the start of May.

It looked increasingly likely that Martial would make the squad for Saturday's final after being spotted in training on Wednesday.

But some have questioned whether he will feature having failed to travel on Friday.

Manchester Evening News journalist Samuel Luckhurst confirmed his absence, saying: "Anthony Martial not with the United squad when they left for London. Looking like his final appearance for the club was on December 9 against Bournemouth."

Earlier this month, Manchester United's all-time top goalscorer Wayne Rooney questioned the absence of former teammate Martial after Roy Keane made a comment on United's injury problems.

Speaking on Sky Sports following United's win over Newcastle, Keane said: "If you are constantly injured, you are no good to anybody. OK, every club will have its few injuries.

"But there are certain players in that group there that always seem to be injured. You can’t rely on these players to turn up week in and week out and play for Man United."

Rooney then added: "It is like Martial for instance, I have played with him. He is a very nice guy. But where has he been? I can’t remember the last time I’ve seen him play. What’s up with him?"
