Injuries are apparently the prime reason for why Manchester United star Anthony Martial failed his loan spell at Sevilla, a club director has revealed.
The Frenchman joined the Spanish outfit on-loan for the second-half of the 2021/22 campaign after falling down the pecking order at Old Trafford. The switch to the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan was expected to give the former Monaco star a chance to kick-start his career following an underwhelming few seasons.
However, the 26-year-old only made 12 appearances for Sevilla over five months - his only goal coming in the Europa League against Dinamo Zagreb. However, the La Liga side’s general manager and secretary of the board of directors, José María Cruz de Andrés, has put Martial’s struggles down to a lack of fitness throughout his stint at the club.
