Anthony Martial has reportedly been offered a huge contract at a new club.

Having left Manchester United upon the expiry of his contract, Martial is currently a free agent.

The attacker has been linked with a variety of clubs, however a fresh source has revealed that a club could offer the ‘biggest contract in their history’ in an attempt to land the player.

Martial has reportedly been offered a lucrative contract with Greek giants AEK Athens as per Sport24 via The Sun.

The 28-year-old would become the highest paid player in the club’s 100 year history.

Former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Erik Lamela also joined AEK Athens this summer as a free agent, agreeing a three-year deal following his contract expiration with La Liga side Sevilla.

The pair of Martial and Lamela would reunite four years after the striker received a red card for a clash with the Argentine during a famous Premier League match.

During Tottenham’s 6-1 victory over United in 2020, the two began to fight after Lamela’s elbow looked to have made contact with Martial’s neck during a Spurs corner.
