Meanwhile, Manchester United’s centre forward, Anthony Martial has been called up to join France squad for their upcoming Nations League to be played on 5 and 7 September.
Since March 2018, this is the first time Anthony Martial will represent France. His performance in the Premier League games has helped him make his way back into the team. The attacker’s trickery and skills in crucial matches and earning penalties is a bonus for France.
