Solskjaer demanding more from Martial as Man Utd seek to build the perfect No.9

The Red Devils boss knows what it takes to be a striker at the top level and is hoping to see the French forward follow in his footsteps

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits to being on Anthony Martial’s case as Manchester United endeavour to mould the French forward into a fearsome No.9.

The talented 24-year-old now has that shirt on his back at Old Trafford, having inherited it from the departing Romelu Lukaku in the summer of 2019.

Martial considers a central striking role to be his best, but has spent much of his career to date in England operating in a wider attacking post.
