Everton have been presented with a surprise market opportunity after being offered the chance to sign Anthony Martial, according to talkSPORT. The former Manchester United forward is available as a free agent and would consider a return to the Premier League, a development that arrives at a time when David Moyes is urgently seeking attacking reinforcements.
The timing is obvious. Everton are short in the striking department after a move for Folarin Balogun collapsed late on Deadline Day. As the report states, the club are "desperate for a striker" and that need has only sharpened after the sale of Beto, leaving "just Thierno Barry up front". In that context, it is understandable why Martial's name has surfaced, even if the profile comes with major questions.

Martial, now 30, has been without a club since his spell in Mexico with Monterrey ended after only 20 games earlier this year. He remains a recognisable name in Premier League circles, having scored 63 goals and produced 33 ****** ists across 209 matches for Manchester United. Yet the broader picture is harder to ignore. His post-Old Trafford career has offered little evidence of a sustained revival.
At AEK Athens, he managed nine goals and two ****** ists in 24 appearances. His time at Monterrey was more troubling, where he "scored just once in 20 games", and the source notes he has netted only 10 goals since leaving English football in 2024. Injuries have also continued to interrupt him, with a "nasty dislocated shoulder" cutting short his time in Mexico.
