5 possible destinations for Anthony Martial

#4 Paris Saint Germain

A move to PSG could see Martial hook up with countryman Kylian Mbappe

Current reports suggest that Martial and his family are happily settled in England following three seasons at Manchester United, but if it’s home cooking that the Frenchman is craving in terms of a move away from Old Trafford, then his native country’s biggest club Paris St. Germain would probably be the most likely destination.

The reports linking Martial with a move to PSG seem tenuous at best right now, but the fact is that the French champions are certainly rich enough to be able to easily buy a player of his calibre, and with the side missing out on Champions League glory once again this season despite adding the attacking talents of both Kylian Mbappe and Neymar, they’re clearly going to spend big again this summer.

With Neymar’s future at the Parc des Princes apparently in doubt – recent reports have even linked him with a move to Manchester United – then more firepower would probably be required by the French side and who better to fill the void than Martial?

Granted he isn’t as proven at the top level as some of PSG’s other targets – the likes of Paulo Dybala – but his young age and clear talent would make him a worthy buy.

If Martial ends up attracting a bidding war this summer then few clubs would be capable of out-spending PSG – who are of course backed by Qatari money – and so to see the Frenchman returning to his home country might not be a massive shock.
