Anthony Martial joined Sevilla on loan until the end of last season in January and the switch promised him more game time after a frustrating period with Manchester United. The loan was designed to increase the value of a rapidly depreciating asset.
Martial had only been at Sevilla for just over a month and it had become clear that wasn't going to happen. Martial struggled with injury once again and he was eventually whistled by his own supporters following his return from the sidelines. Martial had only made six appearances for Sevilla and Julen Lopetegui was being asked to comment on the booing of the player - that wasn't in the script.
Lopetegui refused to condemn the whistling and suggested that Martial should 'adapt to what we ask of him' instead. It was perhaps the lowest point of Martial's career. You wouldn't have thought the Frenchman was once the world's most expensive teenager.
