Anthony Martial gives Man United fresh scare after limping off in France’s World Cup qualifier

Anthony Martial provides Man United with a fresh scare after limping off against Ukraine in France’s latest 2022 World Cup qualifier… with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer already dealing with Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood injuries 

  • Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could be facing a forward crisis
  • Anthony Martial was forced off with injury during France’s World Cup qualifier
  • Marcus Rashford pulled out of the England squad due to a foot injury this week
  • Mason Greenwood also withdrew from the U21 camp through injury 

Manchester United striker Anthony Martial was forced off with injury in France‘s game with Kazakhstan, leaving Ole Gunnar Solskjaer potentially facing a forward crisis.

Marcus Rashford pulled out of the England squad with a foot injury earlier this week while Mason Greenwood also withdrew from the U21 camp.

Martial went down with a knee injury in the second half of France’s World Cup qualifier on Sunday and was unable to continue. The forward appeared to get his studs caught in the turf and looked in some pain as he hobbled off.

Solskjaer will be hoping it is not a serious problem as he is already short of striking options.

Should Martial be sidelined, Edinson Cavani would be the only fit available forward and he too is just returning from injury.

United face Brighton on Sunday before the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final tie with Granada.
