Sevilla chief Monchi has opened the door to signing permanently Manchester United attacker Anthony Martial.

Martial signed for the La Liga side until the end of the season in January after becoming frustrated with his lack of game time at Old Trafford but his short stay in Spain has been plagued by injuries.

The 26-year-old Frenchman has made just 11 appearances for Sevilla since joining on loan from United and scored only one goal.

Monchi, however, has said he is "not closing the door" on Martial remaining with Sevilla beyond the end of his loan.

"His transfer was cheaper than you think, but it's still a big bet, just six or seven million," Monchi told Radio Sevilla.

"Unfortunately, it is difficult to analyse Martial's performance when he was injured and now he is injured again.

"I'm not closing the door on his continuity although there's a lot to see and discuss with the player at the end of the season."
