Players also had to leave the team, with Scott McTominay’s transfer to Napoli arguably being the hardest to accept.

Martial is anticipated to agree to a three-year contract worth more than €3 million, or almost Β£50,000 per week with bonuses.

“AEK are close to detonating the biggest bomb of the summer transfer window,” according to documents purportedly being exchanged with Sport24 to hype the transfer.

Martial is not present in the stadium. According to the story, AEK genuinely intended to introduce Martial to their supporters at Monday’s home game against Volos.

Although AEK prevailed 2-0, the agreement with Martial was not finalized in time for Monday night’s presentation.

Martial will play for former Argentina star Matias Almeyda, therefore AEK appears to think that a deal is imminent.

Erik Lamela, a former star player for Tottenham Hotspur, joined AEK in the summer, and Nordin, the brother of Sofyan Amrabat, also plays for the team.

With three victories out of four games, AEK leads the league and will be looking to Martial to help them capture another league championship this year.
