Anthony Martial reveals affection for Arsenal - Henry was my hero!

Manchester United forward Anthony Martial has revealed he had a soft spot for Arsenal as a youngster, with Thierry Henry and Nicolas Anelka among the stars he admired growing up.

The Gunners were linked with a move for the one-time Monaco prodigy, but were unwilling to match the club's valuation and were beaten to his signature by United in 2015.

Martial is in the final year of his contract at Old Trafford and, should renewal negotiations break down, Arsenal could seek to land the man they once failed to sign.
