Everton 'offered' Anthony Martial after transfer deadline striker shambles

The Toffees are considering free-agent Anthony Martial after a collapsed move for Folarin Balogun left David Moyes with one senior striker.

  • Following the collapse of their deal for Folarin Balogun on Tuesday, Everton are considering signing free agent Anthony Martial as Manager David Moyes assesses options to bolster his squad.
  • The Toffees' pursuit of Monaco's Balogun collapsed on deadline day after the United States international rejected the move at the 11th hour, leaving Moyes with only Thierno Barry as a recognized senior striker.
  • Martial, 30, brings significant Premier League experience, having scored 63 goals and contributed 33 assists in 209 appearances for Manchester United before leaving Monterrey in June.
  • Intermediaries have reportedly contacted several English clubs regarding the Frenchman's availability, including Leeds, Crystal Palace, Newcastle, Sunderland, and Spurs, as Everton seeks remaining free agent options.
  • The 1878's volunteer group announced they are "standing down for the foreseeable future," citing disgust with Everton's summer business, adding off-field pressure to the club's recruitment strategy.
