Ex-Man Utd striker Martial joins Monterrey

Anthony Martial has scored two goals in 30 games for France but has not played since 2021

Former Manchester United striker Anthony Martial has completed a move to Mexican side Monterrey from AEK Athens.

Martial, 29, who made 317 United appearances and scored 90 goals during a nine-year stint at Old Trafford, has signed a two-year contract at the Liga MX side with the option of a further year.

He left United when his contract expired in 2024 and scored seven goals in 19 league appearances for Greek side AEK.

Martial became the world's most expensive teenage footballer when United paid Monaco £36m to sign him in 2015.

The France international has missed AEK's past seven games and last featured in a 1-0 win over Hapoel Be'er Sheva in the second qualifying round of the Conference League in July.

Legendary former Spain and Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos joined Monterrey in February.

They are second in the table and play second-bottom Querataro on Monday at 00:00 BST.
