Anthony Martial admits he is still 'a few more weeks' away from full fitness after returning for Manchester United in friendly against Everton... but the forward is hoping for a 'great season' ahead

Anthony Martial has revealed he remains 'a few weeks away' from full fitness but was delighted to get back on the pitch in Manchester United's 4-0 friendly win over Everton.

The 25-year-old has spent five months on the sidelines after picking up a knee injury while on World Cup qualification duty for France, which forced him to miss the end of the Premier League season and Euro 2020.

'I am feeling a lot better after five long months,' Martial told Manchester United's club website.
