Martinez is at risk of leaving MU.

Lisandro Martinez's future at Manchester United has unexpectedly become uncertain ahead of the 2026 summer transfer window.

Martinez could leave MU.

According to The Athletic , Martinez is currently in a state of instability at Old Trafford. A series of injuries over the last two seasons, particularly a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), have cast serious doubt on the 1998-born player's role.

Under interim manager Michael Carrick, Manchester United secured qualification for next season's Champions League early and began planning a squad overhaul. The Old Trafford club is reportedly targeting Elche's central defender David Afffengruber to strengthen their defensive depth.

Currently, Yoro shares the left-back position with Martinez and Ayden Heaven, while Harry Maguire is almost certain to start in the center of the defense.

Although the coaching staff highly values ​​Martinez's leadership qualities and personality, journalist Andy Mitten believes the center-back's biggest problem is his inability to maintain a consistent presence on the pitch.

"Martinez needs to play consistently. He's the best passer of the ball in the Manchester United defense when he's in top form. In the dressing room, Martinez has a very strong voice, and even captained the team under Carrick," Mitten shared on The Athletic .

However, he also emphasized that MU would not rush to offer Martinez a new contract until the player has proven his ability to maintain consistent fitness and performance.

Martinez's contract with MU runs until 2027, but with recent developments, the possibility of the Argentine center-back leaving Old Trafford this summer has become more realistic than ever.
