Manchester United have got their fans excited about the future of Anthony Martial.
While the France international hasn’t always been very consistent for the Reds, many fans are big admirers of his potential as he has picked up something of a cult following on social media known as Martial FC.
A recent tweet from the official club account (@ManUtd) hinted that Martial would be going on tour with United which has, as a result, excited fans as it perhaps suggests the 22-year-old won’t be leaving after all.

It would be naive to believe that. United’s marketing team haven’t a clue where Martial will be playing his football next season. They’re simply working with what they have, so expect to see Lee Grant feature at some stage.
‘After thinking about all the possibilities and settings, Anthony [Martial] wants to leave Manchester United,’ his agent Philippe Lamboley told RMC Sport last month.
As far as Stretty News understands that has not changed and the player would still prefer a move away from United.
The Telegraph have linked Martial to Chelsea. He may be the key to unlock Willian, but the former AS Monaco forward shouldn’t be used as bait and handed to a domestic rival.
Martial stays? Make the announcement!!!

Does that mean he is not going anywhere, and for us to ignore the stupid transfer rumours.
