Man Utd are ready to sell Martinez as Madrid consider move | OneFootball

Manchester United could cash in on one of their key players in their defence, according to talkSPORT.

The Red Devils have had an underwhelming Premier League campaign. They are currently 13th in the standings, eight points behind the Champions League places.

Manager Ruben Amorim will want financial backing to sign players who fit into his 3-4-3 system. The spending could coincide with multiple stars heading for the exit door.

With Profitability and Sustainability limits, United may need to sell before they can make a huge outlay, and the club could listen to offers for Lisandro Martinez.

Martinez has been a fan-favourite since his arrival in 2022, but United are open to sanctioning his sale amid interest from European champions Real Madrid.

Only Kobbie Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho and Amad Diallo are deemed untouchable at the moment. The club are open to offers for literally every other player.

Martinez’s departure would not be a surprise

The Argentine has been one of United’s better signings over the past couple of years.

He has been a mainstay in the starting line-up when fit and has delivered some standout performances.

However, his form has dipped with his regular injury concerns. The World Cup winner recently had a tough outing against Nottingham Forest in the league at Old Trafford.

The board may contemplate the sale of the £41 million-rated star. A package in the region of £70-80m could encourage them to part ways with him.

Marcus Rashford is another candidate who could leave next year. His form has been inconsistent since his 30-goal season in 2022/23 and he could be sold soon.
