Rashford Sancho
There are very few players in Europe who are more frustrating to follow than Man Utd star attacker Marcus Rashford.
Having come through the academy, fans have cut him a lot of slack but at this point, one wonders if he will ever become the player he was destined to.

Rashford’s time at Manchester United has been akin to someone suffering from bipolar disorder. He either has phases where he cannot stop scoring, is so much fun to watch and is almost unplayable or has phases where seemingly cannot record a shot on target.
Just yesterday, we covered a story revealing that Manchester United had decided to let Marcus Rashford go. It was a decision that they made keeping in mind that letting him go could free up a significant chunk of wages that could help in FFP.
Back in March, Manchester United valued the English attacker at £100m. PSG were preparing a £75m bid which wasn’t deemed enough by the English club but it looks like less than nine months later, the situation has turned on its head.
Now, as per Daily Mail, Manchester United have lowered their fee by almost £60m, and are willing to part ways with Rashford for a bid of about just £40m now.
That is a stark decline in stance from the club and one wonders if there is more going on here than that meets the eye.
The fee at which Man Utd are willing to offer Marcus Rashford out begs the question – do the Red Devils want to sell? Or, do the Red Devils need to sell? All his inconsistencies factored in, that feels too less for a player of his ability.
It all comes back to the first question – can Rashford ever become consistent in his career? Judging by these developments, Manchester United clearly don’t think so and let’s wait and see what the future holds for the English attacker going forward.
