| Didier Deschamps believes Anthony Martial should not be under pressure at Man Utd because of his fee |
FRANCE manager Didier Deschamps believes Manchester United new boy Anthony Martial shouldn't be under pressure to live up to his whopping transfer fee.
Martial was a surprise deadline day arrival at Old Trafford this summer, with Manchester United stumping up £36million – rising to £58m with add-ons – to land the striker.
United have been criticised for spending so much on an untested teenager, however Deschamps believes Martial has the potential to succeed at United.
"Does he have a choice? Manchester United has an incredible sum, there is nothing," he told RMC.
"I selected before he goes there. It has a very interesting potential.
"Today it has steps and he will have to do it rather quickly because Manchester is not Monaco, where he had a certain guarantee of playing time.
"It's a choice. Manchester counting on him, it is young."
