The Frenchman enjoyed a brilliant start to the season, scoring in the opening game against Chelsea and looking good as the central striker. Anthony Martial was on the score-sheet again in the following game, away to Wolves, which United drew 1-1.

Against Crystal Palace though, Martial failed to score, but did pick up an assist. However, the Frenchman picked up a thigh injury in the game and was ruled out of the Southampton game. United looked a bit blunt in attack without him and the International Break arrived at the right time for Martial, who is fighting to be fit for the Leicester City game.

There are unconfirmed reports that the Frenchman could be back for the weekend’s game, but there has not been any official update from the club yet. Anthony Martial had shifted to the No. 9 shirt after the departure of Romelu Lukaku in the summer and there were traces of his brilliant debut season in his game this term. Manchester United will be hoping that they can get their mercurial Frenchman fit in time to face Leicester City.
