Agent's Rebuttal and Martial's Future
Contradicting these claims, Martial's agent, Philippe Lamboley, speaks out, denying that Martial has been isolated from the team. "What was said about him [training alone] is completely false.
He was not excluded from the group and he has no problem with the coach Erik ten Hag," Lamboley told Sky Sports. He reveals that Martial is set for surgery on a hip injury, dismissing rumours of a rift with Ten Hag.
As for Martial's future, Lamboley asserts that the Frenchman, whose contract expires in June, has no intention of leaving Manchester United in the January window.
Despite only scoring 12 Premier League goals in the last three-and-a-half seasons, including just one this term, Martial's agent emphasizes his commitment to United, where he's been a mainstay for nine seasons.
