BARCELONA are reportedly keeping an eye on wantaway Manchester United ace Anthony Martial.
The Frenchman has seen limited game time this term and has ultimately failed to live up to the hype that surrounded his £36million 2015 transfer.
And according to Sport, Barca are looking to offer Martial a way out of England after it was revealed the forward wants a January move.
Martial’s representative, Philippe Lamboley, told Sky Sports News: “Anthony wishes to leave the club in January.
“He just needs to play. He doesn’t want to stay in January and I will speak to the club soon.”
The Catalan giants are in the market for a new forward after summer signing Sergio Aguero’s health scare.
And loan signing Luuk de Jong is also out of favour after failing to impress.
Bringing Martial to LaLiga would also relieve Memphis Depay of some pressure, who has been Barca‘s main man in front of goal this term.

Barca could, however, face stiff competition from a number of top clubs.
Juventus are reportedly interested in signing Martial as they look to find a long-term replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo, who left in the summer for Manchester United.
But whether Martial can fill Ronaldo’s shoes is another question, with the forward netting just once in ten appearances.
