Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) have identified Manchester United star Anthony Martial as a potential replacement for Kylian Mbappe, according to RMC Sport via The Daily Mail.
Manchester United signed Martial from Ligue 1 club AS Monaco for €60 million in the summer of 2015, making him the then most expensive teenager in the game. The Frenchman initially starred for the Red Devils, but has now moved to the fringes of the squad.
Martial has only clocked 359 minutes of playing time across competitions for United this season. With first-team action difficult to come by at Old Trafford, the forward could put an end to his association with the club soon.
The Frenchman's agent Philippe Lamboley sparked talk of a winter move for Martial by revealing that his client is keen to secure regular playing time. He said:
"Anthony wishes to leave the club (Manchester United) in January. He just needs to play. He doesn't want to stay in January, and I will speak to the club soon," Lamboley told Sky Sports.
With the winter transfer window just around the corner, Martial could be the subject of interest from clubs across Europe. According to reports, PSG have identified Martial as a potential replacement for Mbappe.
Real Madrid have been heavily linked with a move for Mbappe since last summer. Mauricio Pochettino's side could step up their interest in Martial if Los Blancos sign their star man.
PSG, though, are not the only club interested in acquiring Martial's services from Manchester United. If reports are to be believed, Ligue 1 side Lyon are also keen on signing the forward.
Lyon are claimed to be interested in signing Martian on a loan deal in the winter transfer window. European giants Barcelona and Juventus are also said to be monitoring Martial's situation at Manchester United.
Kylian Mbappe is likely to leave PSG next summer
Kylian Mbappe has been one of PSG's best players since joining them from AS Monaco in 2017. The France international, though, could soon be on his way out of Paris.
Mbappe is in the final seven months of his contract with Mauricio Pochettino's side. There have been no signs that the former Monaco forward would put pen to paper on a fresh deal with the Parisians.
Real Madrid have been credited with an interest in signing Kylian Mbappe from PSG next year. Carlo Ancelotti's side failed in their efforts to take the forward to the Santiago Bernabeu in the summer, but are keen to get their man soon.
Should Kylian Mbappe join Real Madrid, PSG could turn their attention to Manchester United star Anthony Martial to fill that void.
