Report: Arsenal will not resume pursuit of £60m star

Arsenal are not expected to target Anthony Martial this summer, despite the Manchester United star reportedly frustrated with his playing time under Jose Mourinho.

Martial was linked with a January switch to the Emirates amid Alexis Sanchez’s departure. However, the eventual deal saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan trade places with the Chilean.

However, relations between Martial and United boss Jose Mourinho have soured since then with Barcelona, Juventus, Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid closely monitoring the situation.

The Gunners have been struggling for form this season and could find themselves without another year of Champions League football should they fail to triumph in the Europa League.

Martial who is valued at around £60m is thought to be too substantial for Arsene Wenger’s side who are looking to strengthen in other areas this summer. However, Barcelona, Juventus, Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid are all said to be keen on the France international.
