Man Utd outcast Anthony Martial has missed six games with injury, scored just one goal and been whistled by Sevilla fans
MANCHESTER UNITED outcast Anthony Martial has not had the best of times during his loan spell in Sevilla, suffering a fresh injury blow ahead of the season finale next weekend.
Martial, who joined the Spaniards on loan from Manchester United in January, has struggled for form and playing time, even being the subject of jeers from his own fans.
Having made 12 appearances for the team this season, including nine in La Liga, many might have expected a fresh start to reignite the Frenchman's stuttering career.
However, just one goal and assist has failed to showcase the type of form he would want to display to either convince Erik ten Hag to give him more minutes at Man United or for a transfer bid to come in.
A fresh injury blow he sustained during a 23 minute cameo against RCD Mallorca kept him out of action as Sevilla drew 1-1 with Atletico Madrid and is set to also see the same occur for the season finale.
This inability to remain fit for games has been a big detriment to the Spanish side who have relinquished their spot of second in the La Liga table to drop down to fourth.

Martial went on loan to Sevilla under Ralf Rangnick after failing to earn significant minutes under any of the three managers who have managed United this season.
He started just two games in the Premier League this season before going out on loan, scoring in the 57 minute appearance he made against Everton in October - his only other goal of the season.
The 26-year-old joined United in 2015 for £36m from Monaco, becoming British Football's most expensive teenager.
He instantly won the hearts of the Old Trafford crowd when he scored a wonder goal against Liverpool just moments after coming off the bench for his debut.

He has played 269 times for United, scoring 79 goals and getting 50 assists to go along with the four trophies he has won while with the club.
Sevilla are not expected to make his loan move a permanent one, meaning the incoming Ten Hag will have a decision to make on whether he sees him in his plans next season.
