Inter interested in Manchester United forward Anthony Martial

Manchester United

forward Anthony Martial has emerged as a surprise target for Inter in the summer transfer window.

Inter Milan are interested in Manchester United forward Anthony Martial, according to the football transfer rumours in Italian Media (Football Italia).

The France international has joined Manchester United from Monaco for a fee in the region of 60 million euros in September 2015. The 21-year-old has a valid contract with Manchester United until June 2019.

Since his arrival from Monaco, Martial has scored 26 goals and provided 18 assists in 92 games for Manchester United.

 

 

Anthony Martial has represented France at Under-16, Under-17, Under-18, Under-19 and Under-21 level, winning 51 caps and scoring 25 goals, before making his senior international debut in September 2015. As a member of France national football team, Martial has won 15 caps and has scored one goal.

Adding a winger remains Inter Milan’s top priority this summer and Luciano Spalletti will have drafted a shortlist of a number of possible targets he could approach in the coming weeks.

Luciano Spalletti is keen to secure at least two more signings this summer, and Anthony Martial could very well be a man under consideration. He is a long term admirer of Martial and believes he can get the most out of the France international.

The France international is a player who has impressed many European clubs in the last few seasons, and it is understood that Inter Milan manager would prefer playing him as a winger.

The France international would be a versatile addition for the Inter Milan, having featured at forward and in a wider midfield role.

According to the report in Italian Media, Inter Milan have revived their interest in signing Anthony Martial, after they came unstuck in their efforts to sign Borussia Dortmund’s Emre Mor and Caen’s Yann Karamoh.

How strong that interest is and whether Inter Milan will make a summer move remains to be seen but it is certainly one worth keeping an eye on.
