Man Utd have 'run out of patience' with Anthony Martial and 'plan to sell him' after Erik ten Hag snub

Manchester United plan to sell Anthony Martial this summer after 'running out of patience' with the striker, according to a new report.

Martial moved to United in the summer of 2015, with the club paying an initial fee of £36.3 million to Monaco to acquire the 18-year-old.

Manager Louis van Gaal stated that the Frenchman was a signing for the future - although he scored on his debut in a 3-1 win over Liverpool.

His record at United since his opening campaign has been mixed, although he did net a career-best tally of 17 league goals in the 2019/20 season under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

But that proved to be a false dawn for the forward, as he netted just four times in the following season and failed to score in nine appearances during the 2021/22 campaign before being loaned out to Sevilla.

This campaign, Martial's season has been blighted by injuries, meaning he has missed a total of 27 games in all competitions (via Transfermarkt).

Since returning from his latest injury in April, the forward has been a regular in the side under Erik ten Hag, and started Saturday's 1-0 win over Bournemouth.

But he hit the headlines for the wrong reasons, as he failed to acknowledge the Dutchman after being substituted on 57 minutes.

Now, according to a new report, United will look to cash in on him this summer.

Man Utd 'plan to sell' Martial

The Sun report that United plan to sell Martial due to 'running out of patience' with the forward. His goal record of eight goals in 27 appearances this term also credited as a reason as to why the club will look to sell him.

It is claimed that United will listen to any offers for the forward, which could in turn help to fund a bid for Tottenham star Harry Kane.

England's all-time record goalscorer is believed to be Ten Hag's primary target this summer, and The Telegraph claimed last month that United had made initial moves to attempt to sign him.

One major stumbling block will be Spurs chairman Daniel Levy, who is said to want at least £100 million from English clubs to sell his prized asset.

That is despite Kane having just one year left on his current contract, with The Telegraph also claiming that the 29-year-old has given consideration to running down that deal and leaving on a free transfer.

If United do not sign the Spurs forward, however, they could launch a move for one of their other targets, with several outlets also reporting the possibility of a big-money move for Napoli's Victor Osimhen.
