Martial is now looking for his next challenge and has been linked with a string of clubs around Europe.

The Frenchman's advisor Philippe Lamboley has revealed that his client won't rush into a decision - while also insisting that he is fully fit despite not playing since December.

Speaking to Sky Sports' Lyall Thomas, Lamboley said: "Anthony is on vacation.

"We are studying the different projects and we will take time.

"Anthony has made sure to be fit and ready for his new club. He has been training normally for two months.

"He is 28-years-old. I hear reports that he would be too financially greedy with the clubs. This is not true.

"Anthony wants an ambitious project to achieve high club goals and get back into the France team.

"He will choose his club according to the sporting and family project.

"The finances are important for any professional player but they are not his priority."

Sky Sports add that Martial has already attracted interest from Besiktas, Lyon and Marseille.

The forward joined Man Utd from Monaco in 2015.

He went on to make 317 appearances for the Red Devils over nine years, scoring 90 goals and laying on 47 assists.

Martial became a bit-part player at Old Trafford in his latter seasons, making just 13 Prem appearances during his final campaign.

The 30-cap France international went on an unsuccessful loan at Sevilla in 2022, during which he scored once in 12 outings.

He last appeared for his country in 2021, in a World Cup qualifier against Finland.
