Man Utd attacker Martial set for Sevilla medical

Manchester United have cleared Anthony Martial to join Sevilla on-loan.

The Manchester Evening News says United have sanctioned Martial's loan move to Sevilla after the La Liga side agreed to cover all of his wages.

United won't receive a loan fee for Martial, but they were unwilling to allow the France forward to leave unless his salary was covered in full.

After several weeks of negotiations, Sevilla have now agreed to pay all of Martial's £240,000-a-week wage, having initially only offered to cover half of that salary.

Martial is expected in Sevilla for a medical and to finalise a loan move for the rest of the season on Tuesday. There will be no option to make the move permanent at the end of the season.
