Manchester United allowed Anthony Martial to leave on loan in January but his switch to Sevilla has not allowed him to recapture his best form as his struggles continue Anthony Martial is struggling for form at Sevilla

Anthony Martial is thought to be angry and frustrated by his situation at Sevilla, according to reports in Spain.

The Frenchman swapped Manchester United for the LaLiga outfit in January having struggled to minutes at Old Trafford. A six-month loan deal provided him with the opportunity to revive his career but things have not gone to plan in Spain as Martial struggles to fit into Sevilla's system, according to Marca.

Julen Lopetegui has performed impressively in Andalusia and has Sevilla, again, sat in the top four having lost just twice in LaLiga. The former Spain and Real Madrid boss opted to sign Martial just a matter of months ago but has only used him sparingly, often hauling off the 26-year-old.

Martial is yet to complete a game for Sevilla, with his most recent outing against Real Sociedad cut short after just 59 minutes as sections of the home fans showed their frustration by releasing a chorus of jeers as he walked from the field. The loanee has scored just once since joining as his hopes of a renaissance continue to turn into more of a nightmare.

Upon joining the club in January, he said: "I had a lot of options but I talked to the manager [Julen Lopetegui] and with Monchi and I said Sevilla was the best option to play and enjoy football again because I lost it a little bit in Manchester.

"I wasn't playing and I knew that if I went to Sevilla, I would have the occasion to play and enjoy myself. I feel very good at Sevilla. The city's very good and we are a good team, so for me, it's perfect. I'm playing so I am happy."

Does Anthony Martial have a future at Man Utd? Have your say in the comments!

Martial is due back in Manchester come the summer, by which point a new man could be in charge at Old Trafford. Ralf Rangnick is currently in an interim role but Mauricio Pochettino and Erik Ten Hag are among the favourites to replace him on a permanent basis. The new man in the dugout will no doubt arrive with his own ideas as he assesses the squad.

United's forward department could be set for a major reshuffle. Cristiano Ronaldo's age is a factor whilst there are rumours about his future should the club miss out on the top four and, as result, Champions League football. Edinson Cavani's contract is up at the end of the season and he is expected to move on.

Marcus Rashford's form continues to be a major concern whilst there are reports he is considering his own future having played a sporadic role in recent months. Anthony Elanga has been a rare bright spark for the Red Devils whilst Jadon Sancho is also beginning to find his feet following a summer move from Borussia Dortmund.
