Former Manchester United striker Anthony Martial has signed for Greek side AEK Athens after nine years in England.

Pulse Sports earlier reported that Martial verbally agreed to a three-year deal with AEK Athens after becoming a free agent at the end of last season.

The forward ended his nine-year stay at Man United after being released by the Red Devils this summer.

Martial failed to get enough playing time in the last couple of seasons, leaving United no choice but to let him leave.

The French international suffered a lot of injuries, which have kept him out of the squad for a long time.

The striker showed a lot of potential during his healthy years at United but was unable to reach his full potential due to injury reoccurrence.

His impressive performance during his early days won him the 2015 Golden Boy Award for Europe's best young player.

He will be looking to get back to his best this season following his move to AEK Athens on a free transfer.
