Lisandro Martinez makes surprise Man Utd transfer decision after sudden Napoli links

Lisandro Martinez has no intention of leaving Manchester United despite becoming the subject of interest from Serie A champions Napoli, according to reports.

Martinez is still working his way back from a cruciate ligament injury he suffered in February and may not feature again until 2026.

Despite that, reports in Italy suggested that the Argentine international was attracting interest from Napoli as they look to bolster their defensive options.

The Italian giants enjoyed great success buying from United last summer, recruiting Scott McTominay for a cut-price fee of £25million

Prior to his injury, the 27-year-old had established himself as a key part of Ruben Amorim’s defence and is seen as one of the experienced leaders within the United squad

While Martinez may not join, however, Napoli could have more success trying to sign Alejandro Garnacho who has fallen out of favour with Amorim.

The Serie A side were interested in signing Garnacho in January but were unable to reach an agreement with United at the time
