Martial joined Lyon aged 14 after being spotted by scouts whilst playing for lower-league outfit CO Les Ulis.
The France Under-21 striker - who was called up to Didier Deschamps' latest senior squad - will become the country's most expensive player ever eclipsing the £50m Real Madrid paid Juventus for Zinedine Zidane in 2001.
