Martial, wh💖o left United earlier this year following the expiry of his contract, will arrive in Greece later on Wednesday and sign a deal reportedly worth £2.5million per season.&🧜nbsp;

The Frenchman's contract will see him become the Greek side's top earner and surpass former Tottenham man Erik Lamela, who♊ joined the club in July.

Martial ar🐟rived at Old Trafford in 2015 for £36m, with his move the highest transfer fee paid for a teenager.

He marked his debut with a goal in a 3-1 victory ov𒁃er Liverpool, and went on to score 17 goals in🐻 49 appearances in all competitions during his debut year with the Red Devils.

Martial enjoyed his most prolific campaign in 2019-20, registering 34 goal contributions (23🃏 goals and 11 assi✅sts), but subsequently struggled to regain his goalscoring touch. 

Over the n🐽ext four seasons, the Frenchman netted 19 times in all competitions, and played just 629 minutes under Erik ten Hag last term. 

Martial ended his United career with 90 goals in 317 appearances along with four tro🦋phies, including the 2016-17 Europa League.

He will 💞join a number of former Premier League players at AEK, including ex-Watford stars Roberto Pereyra and Nordin Amrabat, as well as former Brentford goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha.
