This round of international friendlies have hit United badly, as the young striker was substituted midway the second half due to an injury.
The Frenchman left Wembley on crutches, as his left foot was pictured in bandage as he left the stadium.
France coach Didier Deschamps said after the game: "He was in quite a bit of pain after the match. He got a kick in the penalty area."
"I think it's just a knock rather than anything else to the top of his foot." He added.
United will be anxious to know the extend and level of the injury as the team currently lacks firepower upfront.
United also lost midfielder Michael Carrick to injury during this international break. While winger Antonio Valencia recently underwent a surgery and is expected to be out for about five months. Defender Luke Shaw is also out of the team as he has just started his recovery.
It is almost certain that both Carrick and Martial will miss the trip to Watford on Saturday.
