Borussia Dortmund’s latest stance on signing Marcus Rashford after “personal meeting” with his agents – Man United News And Transfer News

1

Borussia Dortmund reportedly consider a deal for Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford “too expensive”, after they held talks with his representatives last week.

Rashford has fallen out of favour under head coach Ruben Amorim, who has repeatedly left him out of matchday squads due to “training and selection” reasons.

The England international has not featured for the Red Devils since December 12, when he managed 56 minutes of action against Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League.

Shortly before Christmas, Rashford granted an interview to Henry Winter, admitting that he was prepared for a new challenge, away from his boyhood club.

Unsurprisingly, he has not been short of suitors, with several teams both from England and abroad lining up to land his signature. Some of these include AC Milan, Juventus, Napoli, Como, Dortmund, Galatasaray, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and West Ham.

Last week, the reliable David Ornstein revealed that Dortmund were considering a six-month loan deal for Rashford.

Now, Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has given an update, indicating where the Bundesliga slide stand after holding talks with the forward’s agents.

Plettenberg wrote on X, “There was a personal meeting last week between representatives of Marcus Rashford and BVB boss Sebastian Kehl in Dortmund!”

“Dortmund are still in the race to sign Rashford. However, it remains very difficult to make it happen, primarily because the overall package is too expensive at this stage.”

“But BVB informed about all details.”

“AC Milan are still very involved and concrete in this deal as they want to approach Man Utd!”
