Everton considers free agent Anthony Martial before hosting Manchester United

Everton is evaluating a potential signing of free agent forward Anthony Martial to address depth concerns in their attack. The club currently lacks striking reinforcements after the departures of several forwards during the summer transfer window. While internal reports suggest the club has denied active interest, Martial has reportedly been offered to several Premier League sides including Leeds United, Crystal Palace, Brighton, Newcastle United, Sunderland, and Tottenham Hotspur. Martial is currently without a club following his departure from Monterrey in June after a stint disrupted by injuries. Everton is scheduled to host Manchester United this Sunday at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. The David Moyes-led side enters the fixture aiming to recover from a draw against Bournemouth, while Manchester United arrives following a win over Ipswich.
