Manchester United would not rule out selling Lisandro Martinez if Real Madrid are willing to cough up for the defender, according to reports.
Martinez is a fan favourite at Old Trafford, but INEOS do not consider him untouchable after two-and-a-half seasons with the club. The 26-year-old was an Erik ten Hag recruit, having previously played under the Dutchman at Ajax, and he spent the majority of the 2023/24 campaign out injured.
Even with new manager Ruben Amorim at the helm, United have been less than convincing. In the 3-2 home defeat against Nottingham Forest on Saturday, Martinez was aerially dominated by Nikola Milenkovic for the visitors’ first goal and made an awful blunder on the line for their third.
According to talkSPORT, United do not consider Martinez to be ‘off limits’ in the upcoming January transfer window. Real Madrid are believed to hold an interest in the Argentine, who cost a hefty £57million in the summer of 2022.
