Anthony Martial has told his club, Manchester United that he will remain in England.
The Frenchman told the Red Devils that he will push for a move to one of their Premier League rivals this summer.
The 22-year-old wants to leave Old Trafford before the end of the transfer window.
But United’s executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward is reluctant to sell the player and the club have the option to extend Martial’s contract for a further 12 months to avoid him leaving on a free transfer next summer.
The Sun, UK, reports that Martial is ready to clash with United’s hierarchy as he wants to remain in England and play for another Premier League side.
Reports emerged last week, claiming that Chelsea are already working on a deal to sign Martial as a replacement for Eden Hazard, who is wanted by Real Madrid.
