Martial was not part of the original deal when United first approached Inter Milan, but with the clubs unable to agree on a direct fee, United have reluctantly allowed Martial to go to Italy on a long-term loan deal, so that Inter will accept a lower fee than the reported £50 million they were holding out for for Perisic.

After initially being uninterested in the move, Martial has held talks with the Italian giants, and it now seems he is happy to join Inter, with the knowledge he will be guaranteed more first team action in one of the top European leagues which, at 21, will only benefit his experience and development, whilst Mourinho and United benefit from the proven, consistent, class that Perisic can offer.
