Manchester United are reportedly willing to sell Anthony Martial to Inter Milan for £50million, but that could see Ole Gunnar Solskjaer decide to keep three others at the club for this season. With Romelu Lukaku on the verge of leaving Inter to join Chelsea, the Serie A club have supposedly identified Martial as the man they want to replace the Belgian striker.

Jadon Sancho, Edinson Cavani and Marcus Rashford are expected to be the main three up front for United for this campaign with Mason Greenwood the natural option to step in when needed.
Rashford's shoulder surgery though leaves a gap on the left side of United's attack, where Martial may have been expected to fill.
But the possible departure of Martial opens the door for others to step in and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will want a number of options to come in and help out.
Paul Pogba has faced repeated questions over his future at the club, but he often filled in further forward for United last season.

And there had been talk of Amad possibly leaving on loan this summer to gain more experience on a regular basis.
The highly-rated teenager is yet to return from playing at the Olympics with Ivory Coast and Solskjaer made it clear that he plans to hold talks with Amad in the final few weeks of the transfer window.
Regular minutes at Old Trafford may still be limited this season for Amad following Sancho's arrival.
But there could well be more opportunities for Amad should Martial leave while Rashford continues to recover from his operation.
