Arsenal's decision to not pursue Anthony Martial during the January transfer window already looks like the smart move.
Martial had fallen down the pecking order at Manchester United, who he joined for £54million back in 2015, according to Transfermarkt, and continued to be linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium over the last few months.
The Frenchman's old comments on the Gunners also suggested that he wouldn't turn down a move to Mikel Arteta's side, previously admitting that Thierry Henry was one of his heroes growing up.
