French forward Anthony Martial could reportedly be fit for Manchester United's trip to Liverpool this weekend.

Anthony Martial could reportedly be fit for Manchester United's trip to Liverpool this weekend despite pulling up with a hamstring issue on Tuesday night.

The 25-year-old was replaced in the latter stages of his team's 1-0 win at Burnley, having seemingly pulled his hamstring.

The Frenchman emerged as a huge doubt for the clash at Anfield in the immediate aftermath of the victory, but according to the Daily Mail, the injury is not as bad as first feared.

As a result, the report claims that Martial will be given 'as much time as possible' to prove his fitness, with United preparing to make a further assessment on Thursday morning.

The attacker has scored five times and registered seven assists in 21 appearances for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side during the 2020-21 campaign.

The Red Devils are currently top of the Premier League table, three points clear of second-placed Liverpool ahead of Sunday's clash between the bitter rivals.
