Arsenal to hatch audacious 40 million move for Manchester United ace

Arsenal could be about to make an audacious summer bid for Manchester United frontman Anthony Martial. The Daily Mail writes that Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is ready to temp the Red Devils with a £40M offer for the 21-year-old who has found life hard under Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford.
 
Wenger and Mourinho have always had a strained relationship and the Frenchman knows that doing business face to face with his Portuguese counterpart is impossible. The journal however, claims that he’s willing to go over Mourinho’s head to try to get the deal done and that he wants negotiations to take place at boardroom level.
 
Martial arrived in Manchester in 2015 from Monaco in an initial deal worth £36M. After an impressive campaign under Louis van Gaal, the youngster has been in and out of the first-team under Mourinho who has been highly critical of the player’s attitude.
