Manchester United’s Lisandro Martínez Career at Old Trafford Now Effectively Over After Shameless Chelsea Collapse

Lisandro Martínez’s red card and catastrophic defending in Manchester United’s 2-0 defeat to Chelsea has sealed his fate at Old Trafford.

With his contract expiring next summer and no extension in sight, Martínez’s future now lies elsewhere—likely in Spain—after a season of self-inflicted misery.
