Martial can become Man Utd AND France captain says brother


Manchester United's big-money signing Anthony Martial can one day captain the club according to his brother.


The Red Devils signed the 19-year-old for 
£36million from AS Monaco on deadline day which has turned heads around the UK and Europe.

One person who is not surprised by the high profile signing is Martial's brother Dorian who is of the belief that his sibling has the ability and traits to captain both United and the French national team.
"Anthony has all the qualities needed to be Manchester United and France captain," he told The Sun.
"My little brother isn't someone who will shout at all the players around him. He doesn't need to because he speaks with his incredible skills."
Dorian added: "Anthony is a talisman and has the ego and personality on the pitch to be a captain of Manchester United and even France.
"Of course, not right now — because he is just 19 — but definitely in the future. He comes from a club that has produced two France captains (Laurent Blanc and Patrice Evra)."
Martial made his international debut for Les Bleus in Friday's friendly against Portugal and could now land his first start for the country when they face Serbia on Monday
