Manchester United winger Anthony Martial is reportedly ready to ignore interest from some of European football's top clubs in favour of staying at Old Trafford.

The 22-year-old was understood to be desperate to leave the club during the summer having found first-team opportunities limited under manager Jose Mourinho and missing out on France's World Cup squad as a result.

However, he has since worked his way back into Mourinho's plans and reports earlier this week suggested that he is ready to sign a new five-year contract with the club.

Martial's current deal expires next year, although United have the option to extend that by a further 12 months should no new contract be agreed before that.

ESPN reports that the likes of Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are all interested in the France international, but that Martial is leaning towards putting pen to paper at Old Trafford instead.

Martial, who has scored 40 goals in 145 appearances for the Red Devils, would reportedly be set for a pay rise to take him on a par with Luke Shaw on £160,000 a week if he pens fresh terms.
