Manchester United’s manager Jose Mourinho has criticised the Frenchman’s lack of commitment to the club.

Jose Mourinho was livid at the mention of Anthony Martial in the press conference earlier today. Mourinho turned to Manchester United’s press manager on the question on the whereabouts of the French winger. He insisted that he doesn’t know where the Frenchman is.

Anthony Martial’s behaviour has also divided opinions among the Manchester United fans. It has further gained significance because Martial’s agent insisted that the player wants to leave the club over lack of game time last month.

Since the arrival of Alexis Sanchez from Arsenal last season, Anthony Martial’s game time has been increasingly limited. In the pre-season tour, he left the club due to his childbirth, and didn’t return for the rest of the tour to United States.

However, after a week of silence, Martial has finally tweeted on the situation. Taking on twitter, the French player insisted that family comes first but he will return to Manchester United.

“Thank you all for your posts. My little Swan is fine, for the mom it was harder but thanks to God she’s better now. Sorry but my family will always come first… Back tomorrow in Manchester,” wrote Martial.

Manchester United will play their first match in the PL campaign against Leicester City on August 12.
