Could it be second time lucky for Tottenham Hotspur as far as signing Anthony Martial is concerned?
The Mirror reports that Spurs, who were keen to sign Martial from Monaco in 2015 only to be beaten to a deal by Manchester United, are now “monitoring his uncertain situation” at Old Trafford.
Martial, who dazzled in his debut season, has not been a regular under the management of Jose Mourinho this time around, and the Mirror writes that White Hart Lane boss Mauricio Pochettino “could offer him an escape in the summer.”
The France international made his first league start in nearly a month against Watford on Saturday, scoring one and setting up another, “but still has work to do to win over Mourinho and prove he has a long-term United future,” the report adds.
Martial — who cost United an initial £36 million, with a further £8m arriving once he reaches 25 goals for the club and the same again once he wins that number of caps for France — was linked with Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid and Barcelona before Christmas.
