Bayern Munich have emerged as the leading contenders in the race for Manchester United forward Anthony Martial in the summer transfer window.

Jose Mourinho has indicated that he wants to keep the Frenchman at Manchester United next season, but the forward wants assurances over his place in the team before he makes any commitment.




Manchester United are working towards signing him on a new contract, but Martial remains worried about the amount of game time he is going to receive as he has been rarely starting since Alexis Sanchez joined from Arsenal in January.

Juventus have been laying down the ground work for a summer approach for the Frenchman and there are suggestions that they have intensified contacts with the player’s entourage.
 


However, according to Italian daily Gazzetta dello Sport, Bayern Munich are currently leading the transfer chase for Martial and have made moves for the Manchester United player.
