Lisandro Martínez has issued an apology for the heated remarks he made after Manchester United's UEFA Champions League loss to Atlético Madrid on Tuesday, following a face-to-face meeting with manager Michael Carrick.

The Argentine defender's post-match words drew attention across European football, prompting a swift response from within the club. Carrick met with Martínez directly to address the situation before the apology was made public.

Manchester United have now drawn a line under the episode, with the club expected to move focus back to their campaign in the UEFA Champions League.
