And he may be expected to lead the line up against Sevilla tonight with Marcus Rashford out injured with a muscle problem.
But Red Devils fans were left surprised that Martial did not injure himself once again ahead of the match.
A clip surfaced online of the United forward in training.
In the clip, Martial was passed the ball but saw his control let him down before proceeding to do the splits.
Fortunately, the Frenchman appeared to be all smiles after being hugged by a team-mate.
Fans online rushed to the comments to share their thoughts.
One fan said: “So he’s Injured again?”
A second typed: “The way at the end he made cross sign. he thanked god it wasn’t going to be another two months session with physio team.”

A third commented: “Martial can do the splits… but he’s injured himself doing it.”
“My heart dropped,” admitted a fourth.
Another added: “Don’t do such stuff man. At least until Rashy comes [back]!”
It is not yet clear whether Martial or Wout Weghorst will be preferred up front against Sevilla, though Ten Hag has previously said the team are at their best when Martial plays.
