Anthony Martial's three-month search for a new club after leaving Manchester United highlights a significant shift in football, where player demands are increasingly unmet.
The struggles of high-profile players like David de Gea and Adrien Rabiot to find new teams underscore that clubs are regaining negotiation power in the transfer market.
With Financial Fair Play restricting clubs' spending, players must lower their expectations for lucrative contracts, as seen with Martial's acceptance of a move to AEK Athens.
Martial's transfer illustrates a broader trend: elite players might need to accept lesser clubs or leagues as viable options, marking a shift in the football landscape.
