Galatasaray emerge as shock suitors for Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford – Man United News And Transfer News


Manchester United have played their last two games without second-top scorer and talisman Marcus Rashford with head coach Ruben Amorim explaining that he was far from pleased with his overall application on and off the pitch.

The decision was supported by the INEOS hierarchy and the Mancunian has since come out and publicly revealed his desire to part ways with his boyhood club.

The Portuguese has hinted that the Englishman could continue to find himself on the sidelines till he gets his focus back and all signs point towards an imminent exit.

However, his market value of €55 million as per Transfermarkt coupled with his humongous wages of £375,000 per week (as per capology) has meant not too many clubs can afford to sign him.

Rashford’s suitors

Barcelona have already left the race while Paris Saint-Germain have also announced that they cannot cough up the required funds to sign the 27-year-old.

Atletico Madrid have proposed a loan offer but the United hierarchy are in favour of a straight sale so that they use the funds raised to bring in reinforcements for Amorim.

Saudi Pro League clubs could come forward but the England international has no interest in leaving Europe for the riches of the Middle East just yet.

Surprisingly, A Spor have linked Turkish giants Galatasaray with a move for the United No 10 with agent George Gardi claiming that should the forward be ready to depart, he will bring him to Gala.

Rashford wanted by Galatasaray

“Galatasaray have put a star playing in the Premier League on their radar. Galatasaray want the English footballer (Rashford), who was on the agenda of clubs such as PSG, Bayern Munich and Marseille.”

“If he decides to leave the team, I will definitely bring him,” the agent was quoted as saying.

Whether the Turkish giants can afford to pay United’s asking price remains to be seen. The most they have ever spent on a player is €18 million, a price INEOS will never accept.

The number of clubs who can afford Rashford is shrinking by the minute and it will be intriguing to see how INEOS handle this latest saga.
