Anthony Martial’s agent says Manchester United contract extension unlikely despite club triggering option to keep him until 2020
Manchester United and Anthony Martial are ‘far from an agreement’ over a new contract, the France international’s agent has revealed.On Monday, United triggered the option of a one-year extension that was written in Martial’s existing contract, keeping him at Old Trafford until 2020.1

Martial’s future at Old Trafford remains uncertain

His deal was due to expire at the end of this season, and various clubs are keeping tabs on Martial’s situation, including Premier League sides Arsenal and Chelsea, as well as Inter of Milan.Jose Mourinho was happy to let Martial leave earlier this year, but United chiefs refused to back the forward’s departure, and he has now come around to keeping Martial at Old Trafford.Talks have been opened between the club and Martial over a new five-year contract, but the player’s agent,Philippe Lamboley, is ‘very pessimistic’ about a deal getting done.“I am verypessimistic about a positive outcome of the discussions,” Lamboley told RMC Sport. “Theyve already made several offers that do not meet our expectations. We are far from an agreement for the time being.”Throughout the summer, Martial had reportedly decided to leave Old Trafford, with Lamboley saying: “After thinking about all the possibilities and settings, Anthony wants to leave Manchester United.”Martial started just one of United’s first four league matches this season, but hit a brilliant run of form at the start of October. He has scored seven times in his previous nine Premier League appearances, but was only named on the bench for last weekend’s trip to Liverpool.Martial was introduced with 11 minutes remaining of the 3-1 defeat, which keeps United 11 points behind the top four at almost the halfway point of the season.
