Intermediaries have reportedly offered Barcelona and two other clubs the opportunity to sign Marcus Rashford from Manchester United in the January transfer window.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Marcus Rashford does not have a long-term future at Manchester United. Things have gone from bad to worse in the last few days, and intermediaries have offered the exit-linked 27-year-old attacker to Barcelona and two other clubs.
The Marcus Rashford rigmarole
Marcus Rashford has reached a crossroads in his career after getting dropped from two successive matchday squads. While the Englishman has improved this season, he remains well off his best levels. However, he showed some promise in the early days of Ruben Amorim’s spell at Manchester United before the latest controversy.
The exit-linked 27-year-old attacker has given an interview this week, iterating his readiness to embark on a new adventure. So, the academy graduate, who has amassed 138 goals and 63 assists in over 400 appearances thus far for Manchester United, might not have many games left with the Premier League club.
Recent reports have claimed that Rashford’s “lifestyle issues” might have contributed to his current ignominy. With Manchester United ready to cash in on the English international, a move away from Old Trafford in the January transfer window might be on the cards. The latest update has revealed that intermediaries have offered him to Barcelona.
What next?
Recent reports have suggested that Marcus Rashford is a target for Barcelona. So, the latest update might have boosted the Catalan outfit’s prospects. Meanwhile, the under-fire Manchester United attacker is a viable target for Barcelona amid uncertainties surrounding the long-term future of Ferran Torres.
However, Barcelona will not be the only club to have the opportunity to sign Rashford from Manchester United in the January transfer window. Intermediaries have also offered Bayern Munich and Fenerbahce the chance to land the Englishman next month.
Recent reports have also pointed to Bayern Munich’s interest in Rashford. So, it will not be surprising to see the 27-year-old English international joining a European powerhouse in the January transfer window, although his wages might pose a problem for most suitors.
