Tottenham’s philosophy prevents a move for a £35 million Manchester United attacker who is linked to Barcelona and PSG

Speculation regarding Marcus Rashford’s future at Manchester United has been heightened by Rúben Amorim’s decision to exclude the forward from the squad for the most recent Manchester derby.

Paris Saint-Germain hasn’t made any recent moves for Rashford, but Luis Campos, their athletic advisor, is closely monitoring the situation, according to Ben Jacobs of GIVE ME SPORT.

Rashford’s representatives have previously communicated with PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi. But unless Rashford shows a sincere desire to join the French team, such talks are unlikely to take place. Rashford’s decision to sign a five-year contract deal with Manchester United in July 2023 was followed by this methodical approach.

Jacobs said that Rashford is willing to look into La Liga options because Barcelona is said to think he would be a great addition to their team. But unless Manchester United agrees to a loan arrangement and pays a sizable amount of his salary, budgetary limitations make such a move difficult.

Another team in the Premier League has rejected Marcus Rashford.

Although Tottenham might use more attacking alternatives, a move for Rashford is improbable, according to a report published by The Athletic on Thursday. His age of 27 conflicts with Spurs’ recent emphasis on acquiring players under 23 since Ange Postecoglou became coach.

The fit is made more difficult by Rashford’s preference to play on the left wing, where Wilson Odobert, Timo Werner, and captain Son Heung-min already play. His weekly salary of £325,000 would also be a major barrier.

Since Richarlison’s form and fitness issues have left Postecoglou without a guaranteed option in that role, it could make more sense to bring in a trustworthy backup for Dominic Solanke.

Marcus Rashford is apparently a target for Barcelona, according to Football Insider. According to the source, Manchester United, who last January loaned Jadon Sancho to Borussia Dortmund, may think about making a comparable deal for Rashford.

It is “highly unlikely,” nevertheless, that the England international will make a permanent departure during the January transfer window. According to reports, Barcelona sees the loan as a chance to help Rashford get back on track and possibly raise his market value.

The Catalan team has reportedly already gotten in touch with Manchester United regarding a January loan agreement, according to FootballTransfers. According to reports, they included £35 million (€42 million) in the bid, although United has not yet replied.
