Rangnick gives Martial condition to leave Man Utd


Manchester United interim manager, Ralf Rangnick, has confirmed Anthony Martial has asked to leave the club in January.

However, Rangnick also revealed no club has registered interest in the player.

Martial held a meeting with the German last week, and he backed up the claims of his agent, Phillippe Lamboley, confirming that he wishes to leave the club.

Rangnick said he is sympathetic to the 26-year-old’s situation after struggling for opportunities this season, but made it clear the France forward will only be granted a move if it suits the club.

“We spoke at length and he explained to me he has been at Manchester United now for the last seven years and he feels it is the right time for a change, to go somewhere else,” Rangnick said.

“I told him listen, as long as there is no club showing interest in him — and it should not only be in the interest of the player it should also be in the interest of the club — so far, as far as I know, there has been no offer from any other club and as long as this is the case he will stay.”
