His aggressive style, composure on the ball, leadership, and fighting spirit have made him a fan favourite at Old Trafford.<br><br>However, recurring injuries have once again put his long-term future under the spotlight.<br><br>While there is no doubt about Mart\u00ednez&#8217;s quality, his repeated spells on the sidelines have limited his impact over recent seasons. Every time he appears to build momentum, another injury setback has disrupted both his progress and United&#8217;s defensive stability.<br><br>With the club continuing to rebuild under Ruben Amorim, questions are beginning to emerge over whether Manchester United can rely on Mart\u00ednez as a long-term cornerstone of the defence. The arrival of new defensive options and the need for greater squad availability could force difficult decisions if the injury problems persist.<br><br>That said, writing off the Argentine defender would be premature. When fully fit, Mart\u00ednez remains one of the Premier League&#8217;s most complete centre-backs, bringing passion, composure, and elite ball-playing ability that few defenders can match.<br><br>For now, Manchester United&#8217;s priority will be helping him return to full fitness. If he can stay injury-free, he still has every chance of playing a major role in the club&#8217;s future.<br><br>What do you think?
