Manchester United have only just made Anthony Martial the most expensive teenager in history, but the Sun believes Real Madrid and Barcelona would be ready to offer the Red Devils a profit on their investment.
The France international cost an initial £36 million, but with a further £8m arriving once he reaches 25 goals for Jose Mourinho’s side and that same amount once he earns 25 caps for Les Bleus, United’s outlay is likely to be at least £52m before the end of next season.
The report suggests the Spanish clubs would offer £60m, though United would surely be uninterested in a modest return at this stage of the player’s development, but Madrid could include a player in return.
Los Merengues could offer James Rodriguez in a swap deal with Zinedine Zidane seemingly unwilling to accommodate the Colombian in his side.
With Paris Saint-Germain also being linked to Martial this week, United certainly seem to be facing a fight to keep the starlet at Old Trafford.
