Manchester United attacker Anthony Martial has touched down in Spain ahead of completing his loan move to Sevilla.
The Sevilla-unveiling.html”>Daily MailSevilla-unveiling.html”> says Sevilla are understood to have agreed a £5million loan fee while Martial was willing to take a pay cut to make the deal happen – but there is no option for Sevilla to purchase the French forward in the summer.
After posing for photographs by the club’s badge at Seville Airport on Tuesday, Martial is set to undergo a medical to complete the transfer and will spend the rest of the 2021-22 season in Spain.
The 26-year-old had told United he wanted to leave with Sevilla his first choice. There were tentative approaches from other clubs such as Newcastle and Tottenham but Martial was keen to go abroad.
Juventus and Barcelona were also interested but did not want to take on his salary.
Sevilla are challenging Real Madrid for the Spanish title with 16 games left and Martial is excited by the prospect of a new start after growing stale and frustrated at United.
