Manchester United defender Lisandro Martinez publicly apologized for criticizing the club's hierarchy following their Champions League defeat to Atletico Madrid. Martinez met with manager Michael Carrick and senior officials, including director of football Jason Wilcox, after training. He had previously stated the club needed greater investment to compete at the highest level. Martinez acknowledged his frustration got the better of him, leading him to express his feelings at an inappropriate time. A club source confirmed the matter is closed, with any disciplinary action remaining private, though British media reported a fine. Martinez emphasized the importance of unity at Old Trafford and his belief that everyone at Manchester United is working towards shared ambitions. The Argentina international concluded his statement by focusing on future success, as United currently sits 13th in the Premier League. They are set to face Leeds United on Sunday.
