Manchester United Forward Marcus Rashford Faces Loan or Transfer
Marcus Rashford is reportedly available for either loan or transfer this month, as he has fallen down the pecking order under new head coach Ruben Amorim. Clubs are exploring loan moves due to the high cost of a permanent transfer, estimated at £40 million plus Rashford’s significant weekly wages of over £300,000.
AC Milan and Tottenham Hotspur Lead Race for Rashford
AC Milan has been linked with a blockbuster move for the England international, with reports of a formal bid surfacing earlier this week. However, Tottenham Hotspur is not far behind, making a strong push to secure Rashford’s services.
Spurs’ Selection Crisis Fuels Rashford Pursuit
Tottenham Hotspur faces a significant selection crisis, exacerbated by Rodrigo Bentancur’s serious injury during Wednesday’s Carabao Cup semi-final. Richarlison and Wilson Odobert are also struggling with hamstring injuries, while Timo Werner’s future remains uncertain after recent criticism from manager Ange Postecoglou.
Loan Move a Potential Solution for Spurs
A loan move for Rashford could provide much-needed depth across Spurs’ front line. However, Manchester United’s decision will largely depend on Rashford’s hefty wages. AC Milan is reportedly hesitant to cover half of his salary, which may open the door for Spurs if they can offer a more competitive deal. Borussia Dortmund and Juventus are also keeping an eye on the situation.
