Anthony Martial, the most expensive teenager in the history of the game, could cost his club Man United upwards of £60m after a French news outlet leaked the details of his deal.

If you wondered why Louis Van Gaal’s philosophy at Manchester United was to pass the ball sideways and backwards, I believe I have found the answer.

It’s to prevent Anthony Martial from scoring a goal.

The French star joined United from Monaco in the summer for a reported £38m. At the time it was a world record signing for a teenager breaking their own record of £27m when they signed left back Luke Shaw from Southampton a season earlier.
