Man Utd in boost with Anthony Martial returning to full training in hope striker will make France's World Cup squad | The Sun

MANCHESTER UNITED have been given a huge boost after Anthony Martial returned to full training.

And there are even hopes the striker could make France’s World Cup squad this month.

Martial, 26, returned to United over the summer after a flop loan spell at Sevilla.

He hit the ground running in pre-season under new boss Erik ten Hag.

But a number of injuries have limited Martial to just four appearances this term.

Despite spending most of his time on the sideline, the hitman has still managed to score three goals.

And some United fans reckon Martial is the final missing piece in Ten Hag’s already-impressive jigsaw.

However, supporters could soon see what life will be like with the ace in their side.

That’s because Martial finally returned to full first-team training at Carrington on Monday.

It’s reckoned he’s put his hamstring, achilles and back injuries behind him.

And with four games left until Qatar 2022, Martial could get a run in United’s starting XI.

That could even open the door for a stunning World Cup call-up from France boss Didier Deschamps.

The defending champs need solid support for Karim Benzema and Kylian Mbappe.

And reports claim Martial is still in with a shout if he put a run of games together.

United first face Real Sociedad on Thursday in a bid to seal top spot in their Europa League group.
