What started as a fairytale ends as a failure.Anthony Martial’s stint at Old Trafford began in 2015 when he was considered one of the most gifted players in the world. The 2015 Golden Boy winner came to the Theatre of Dreams from Monaco to pursue his dream of becoming the Red Devils’ legend.However, the club’s instability, lots of changes in the dugout, and more than a few shortcomings of his own resulted in the news of his soon departure.Tony Martial Came From France …🎶❤️ @AnthonyMartial pic.twitter.com/5qyfirkJf4— .t (@HerChano17) December 17, 2021 The Frenchman, 26, talked to newly-promoted interim manager Ralf Rangnick and asked for permission to leave, which was granted straight away. It tells that Rangnick finds Martial’s role in the United’s future more than uncertain.Just two Premier League starts this season and only four in all competitions prove the forward’s time at Old Trafford is ticking away.Rangnick offers fortune for a wunderkind labelled as ‘the next Kai Havertz'”We spoke at length on Wednesday,” said Rangnick, ahead of their tonight’s clash at Newcastle in the Premier League (23.00), and added:”He explained to me he’s been at Manchester United now for the last seven years, and he feels it’s the right time for a change, to go somewhere else.”I think in a way this is understandable, I could follow his thoughts, but on the other hand, it’s also important to see the situation of the club.”We have Covid times. We have three competitions in which we still have high ambitions and want to be as successful as we can be.””Dad, how good was Anthony Martial?” pic.twitter.com/HQw07z2ytC— MufcBen 💎 (@MufcBen9) December 26, 2021 It is also understood that there are still no clubs interested in signing Martial in the upcoming transfer window, which could make things worse and deprive him of any hope.ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – ROUND 19Liverpool – Leeds United POSTPONEDWolverhampton – Watford POSTPONEDBurnley – Everton POSTPONEDSundayTottenham – Crystal Palace 3-0 (2-0)/Kane 32, Moura 34, Son 74/West Ham – Southampton 2-3 (0-1)/Antonio 49, Benrahma 64 – Elyounousi 8, Ward-Prowse 61, Bednarek 70/Norwich – Arsenal 0-5 (0-2)/Saka 6, 67, Tierney 44, Lacazette 84 pen, Smith-Rowe 90+1/Manchester City – Leicester City 6-3 (4-0)/De Bruyne 5, Mahrez 14 pen, Gundogan 21, Sterling 25 pen, 87 – Maddison 55, Lookman 59, Iheanacho 65/Aston Villa – Chelsea 1-3 (1-1)/James 24 og – Jorginho 34 pen, 90+3 pen, Lukaku 56/Brighton – Brentford 2-0 (2-0)/Trossard 34, Maupay 42/Monday23.00: (7.25) Newcastle United (4.50) Manchester United (1.50)**odds are subject to change
