Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano claims the “expectation” is for Martial to return to Old Trafford in the summer.
He suggests there is no option to buy the 26-year-old at the end of the loan deal, and there have been no talks about keeping Martial for another season.
But the LaLiga side are not likely to make a final decision on the Frenchman until the end of the campaign in May.
Martial has scored just one goal and provided a further one assist in eight games for Sevilla.

Marca claimed Martial was subjected to jeers from home fans during the 0-0 draw against Real Sociedad.
Supporters showed their frustration with the on-loan star after he was subbed off by boss Julen Lopetegui after less than an hour.
