Martial unavailable for FA Cup final against Man City

Anthony Martial will miss the FA Cup final against Manchester City on 3rd June, Manchester United announced in a club statement.

The France international was injured in the last Premier League game of the season at Old Trafford. The 27-year-old replaced Alejandro Garnacho in the 67th minute and "strained his hamstring towards the end of Sunday’s 2-1 win against Fulham".

"Anthony Martial is out of Saturday’s FA Cup Final against Manchester City due to injury. Assessments have since revealed a muscle tear that rules the 27-year-old out of the Wembley showdown," they wrote.

His injury is a setback for the Red Devils, who have only been able to count on the Frenchman 15 times due to injuries throughout the campaign. Several players such as Alejandro Garnacho and Marcus Rashford could take his place in Saturday's encounter against Guardiola's side.
