Anthony Martial must've been eager to impress Erik ten Hag on Friday, as Manchester United's out-of-sorts striker turned up to training three hours early ahead of this weekend's clash with Brighton

Anthony Martial turned up for Manchester United training three hours early yesterday - then made a sheepish exit after realising his embarrassing gaffe.

Martial now has extra competition at striker, having been replaced during his last appearance away to Arsenal by £72million signing Rasmus Hojlund. The Danish wonderkid, 20, is viewed as the long-term solution to Ten Hag's striking woes and made a positive impression at the Emirates, despite United suffering a bruising 3-1 defeat.

There were suggestions during the early weeks of the summer transfer window that United would be open to selling Martial if they received a substantial offer. Given his lack of options up front, though, Ten Hag elected to keep him at Old Trafford, hoping for a clean bill of health this term.
