The ex-Man United forward is still unable to find a club. It is known what the reason is
Manchester United said goodbye to a lot of players in the current transfer window, but not all of them were able to find a new club right away.
For example, striker Antony Martial left Old Trafford as a free agent and, according to 90min, he has had problems finding a new place of employment.
One of the obstacles to finding a team is the Frenchman's wages. Because of it, the idea of signing Marcial was abandoned by Lyon, as the club offered the striker a pay cut, which he is not ready to accept.
Saudi clubs are also interested in him, including the newcomer to the local top flight, Al-Qadisiyah and Al-Shabab. But Marcial himself realises that he is only 28 years old, and it is too early for him to go to the Middle East to earn money.
However, the Frenchman may stay in Europe as Besiktas are showing interest in him. But he is unlikely to return to the English Premier League, as no local club has offered him a contract.
