Man United star Martial agrees pay cut to force move to top La Liga giants

Earlier, Sports Brief had reported how Anthony Martial agreed wage cut for him to force a January transfer move to Spanish La Liga side Sevilla due to lack of active playing time at Manchester United.

The France international has not been having things rosy this season at Manchester United and he is said to be tired of not playing active football as he wants to move elsewhere.

Martial made his first appearance under Ralf Rangnick in the 1-0 win against West Ham United at the weekend but is still keen to secure a move away from Old Trafford.

Anthony Martial has been playing for Manchester United since 2015 after joining from Monaco and has featured in 175 games so far for the Red Devils.
