Former Manchester United forward Anthony Martial has reportedly received a sizeable contract offer from a club as he seeks to resume his career.
Martial was released by Man United when his contract came to an end at the conclusion of last season.
The 28-year-old remains without a club, but has been linked with several during the summer transfer window.
According to the Greek outlet SPORT24, AEK Athens are the latest suitors for the forward having made an approach within the last week.
AEK Athens are reported to have offered Martial the biggest contract in the club’s history in a bid to convince him to sign.

The offer reportedly surpasses the amount earned by the club’s current top earner, former Tottenham star Erik Lamela.
Lamela is reportedly on a deal worth a reported €2million (£1.7million) per year.
Martial would likely still be taking a sizeable pay cut should he decide to join AEK Athens, with the Frenchman having earned £250,000-a-week at Man United.
AEK Athens move for Martial is reportedly considered as separate to the Greek side’s pursuit of Chelsea forward David Datro Fofana.
Sport24 report that Martial is understood to be unsure about the prospect of moving to the Greek Super League at the age of 28.
Man United signed Martial, then one of the most promising young players in world football, from Monaco in 2015 for a fee which could have reached £58million with add-ons.
He scored 17 times during his debut campaign but proved frustratingly inconsistent towards the end of his Old Trafford career with a diminishing goal return and increasing injury troubles.
