Transfer window: My Sevilla stay complicated, says Man Utd attacker Martial:
Manchester United attacker, Anthony Martial, has said his long-term future with the loan club Sevilla is unlikely.
Martial has netted just one goal from 10 appearances for Sevilla, failing to grab a goal or assist in his last seven matches, something he has put down to a recent muscle injury.
“Now I feel very well. I was able to recover from the injury, which was a complicated injury that required a reasonable recovery time, but now I’m much better,” he told ABC Sevilla.
“I have been very careful to be able to return and be available to the team as soon as possible, which is why I decided to come to Sevilla.

“I’m working on it [to show his best version from now until the end of the season]. I came to be able to enjoy football again after a long time without playing.”
“I know I can be at a higher level, and I work for it, but first the injury, then the adaptation to a new club and a new city, is being difficult for me because of the language barrier.”
Martial still has another two years remaining on his current United deal and he admits he doesn’t think he will spend next season back at Sevilla as his parent club prepare to welcome Erik ten Hag as their new manager.
He added: “I see it very complicated to be able to continue at Sevilla. I’m not worried about that right now. I came knowing that it would be six months and then I would surely have to return to Manchester United.
“I’m very happy with the experience of playing in a new club, as big as Sevilla and having minutes again. If we manage to be a top four team, we will have achieved the goal and I will be happy for the fans, who have been very good to me since I arrived.”
