Anthony Martial hastily deletes tweet that reveals new Manchester United jersey

Seemed like a good idea at the time.

We can't imagine it means an awful lot to him but Anthony Martial is campaigning to be the cover star of the new FIFA 17 game. The Manchester United forward is up against Eden Hazard [Chelsea], James Rodriguez [Real Madrid] and Marco Reus [Borussia Dortmund] to be the cover star and multiple social media campaigns are up and running. To boost his bid, Martial [or his social media manager] tweeted out a picture of himself in front of a green screen. The only problem is, Martial was wearing United's as-yet-unreleased home kit. The two-tone red jersey certainly looks to be the 2016/17 offering from adidas. At this stage, the kit has been involved in more leaks than plumbing at the local rust factory. Indeed, we ran our first United two-tone home jersey story back at the turn of 2016. Just the latest in a long line Tony. The more interesting aspect of this deleted photo is the number on Martial's jersey. Is that 9, 19 or 29?
