LONDON: Manchester United star Anthony Marshall will play for Spanish club Sevilla for the rest of the season. The 26-year-old was brought into the Sevilla squad on loan.
The Frenchman will fly to Sevilla from Paris for medical tests.
Barcelona and Juventus tried to sign Marshall, but he decided to join Sevilla. The decision is based on the assumption that there will be more opportunities to play.
In 2015, United acquired Marshall from Monaco for a record fee. He played 269 matches and scored 79 goals. He was preparing to move to a new club as opportunities in the new season dwindled.
With superstars Cristiano Ronaldo, Jaden Sancho, Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood and Edinson Cavani all positioning in the squad, Marshall often did not get a chance.
Marshall has only been in the starting XI four times in the new season. Marshall had previously stated that he was interested in playing for Sevilla. Sevilla are currently second in La Liga behind Real Madrid.
