Manchester United forward Anthony Martial will reportedly be the subject of interest from two Saudi Arabian clubs when the January transfer window opens for business.
The 27-year-old, who has just one goal in 15 appearances for the Red Devils this term, is facing an uncertain future at Old Trafford, as his contract with the club is due to expire next summer.
Man United have the option to activate a further 12 months to take him until June 2025, and it is believed that could be taken up to allow them to sell him next year.
Erik ten Hag's side are allegedly planning to sign another forward in January to ease the pressure on Rasmus Hojlund, who has netted five times in the Champions League this season but is yet to register in the Premier League.
Martial has been back-up to Hojlund this term, and the Frenchman has not registered in 10 Premier League appearances or three Champions League outings, with his only goal of the campaign coming against Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup at the end of September.

According to journalist Ekrem Konur, two clubs from the Saudi Pro League are planning to make offers for Martial when the January transfer window opens for business.
Konur has not named the two teams in question, but it is alleged that the bids will be in the region of €10m (£8.8m) to €15m (£13.1m), with Man United therefore facing a big decision when it comes to his future.
Martial was regarded as one of the best young talents in world football when he made the move to Old Trafford from Monaco in the summer of 2015.
The forward scored on his Red Devils debut against Liverpool and went on to register 17 times during an impressive first campaign with the English giants.

Martial's best season in terms of goals came in 2019-20, when he managed 23 in all competitions, but he has largely struggled since, only managing 18 goals in the last four campaigns.
In total, he has represented Man United on 313 occasions in all competitions, scoring 89 goals and registering 54 assists in the process.
Martial struggled with injuries in Ten Hag's first season at the helm and has been restricted to largely substitute appearances this term, with his last Premier League start coming against Arsenal at the start of September.
The Frenchman has also played just six minutes of Champions League football this season, with two of his four starts this term coming in the EFL Cup.
West Ham United have also been credited with an interest in Martial, but it remains to be seen whether Man United would be willing to let him move to a domestic rival.
