Manchester United’s ‘Galactico’ approach to summer transfers could see them move for Antoine Griezmann of Atletico Madrid. Yahoo have already claimed that a move has been all-but-agreed between the club and the player, while RMC in France have gone as far as to say that the Red Devils are willing to match his £100m (£86m) release clause to get a deal done.
But even Man United don’t have the financial muscle to fund another Paul Pogba-esque transfer without consequences, and the Independent have revealed that those consequences may well be the sale of Wayne Rooney, Marouane Fellaini and… Anthony Martial!

The former duo are understandable potential departures, but letting the Frenchman head away seems a bit short-sighted. It wasn’t long ago the club made him the most expensive teenager in the history of the game to snap him up from Monaco and even though he seems to be a player Jose Mourinho doesn’t truly appreciate, selling could come back to bite the club on the bottom.
Would letting Martial go, even if it is to fund a Griezmann swoop, be a mistake? Tell us what you think…
