Former Manchester United striker Anthony Martial has signed with Mexican top-tier club Monterrey, the team announced Friday.
The 29-year-old French forward, who spent nine seasons with Manchester United and most recently played for AEK Athens, has agreed to a two-year deal with an option for a third year. At Monterrey, Martial will team up with Spanish internationals and ex-Real Madrid players Sergio Ramos and Sergio Canales.
Martial began his professional career with Lyon, moved to Monaco, and joined Manchester United in the 2015-16 season, scoring 90 goals in 317 appearances. He won multiple trophies with the Red Devils, including the Europa League, FA Cup, EFL Cup, and FA Community Shield. He has also played 31 matches for the French national team, last appearing in 2021.
Monterrey, aiming for its first league title since the 2019 Apertura, recently won the CONCACAF regional club tournament and reached the round of 16 at the last FIFA Club World Cup, where they lost to Borussia Dortmund.
