There's no denying that Anthony Martial is an enormously talented player who has just not been utilized to the full due to Manchester United's managerial issues in the years gone by.

Besides, the arrival of Alexis Sanchez and the emergence of Jesse Lingard has seen the Frenchman fall further down the pecking order under Jose Mourinho.

Consequently, the 22-year-old wants to leave The Red Devils as told by his agent, Philippe Lamboley.

After thinking about all the factors and possibilities, Anthony wants to leave Manchester United
I think that when United, the most powerful club in the world, do not find an agreement after eight months of negotiations then they do not really want to keep such an important player in their squad. That's why this decision has come - it's a well-thought-out decision.
Everyone will have their opinion but I think he needs to resume his career. The time has come.

As such, it would be a breeze for La Blaugrana to scoop up the Manchester United forward.

Martial possesses a technical ability and speed at the left wing that many pundits have likened to Thierry Henry's. Although the comparison is arguably overstated, it just goes on to show the potential the former Monaco star boasts, which could make him a superb addition to Valverde's roster.
