Times are complicated in Mancunian lands. Hooked again this weekend by Burnley (1-1), Manchester United are currently sixth in the Premier League and we will have to fight until the end of the season to be European on the Red Devils side. A complicated exercise for Erik ten Hag’s gang which will not be without consequences. Indeed, with a view to next season, many changes should take place. While Raphaël Varane, Brandon Williams and Anthony Martial are coming to the end of their contract, certain elements like Jadon Sancho, Antony and Mason Greenwood are leaving as revealed The Telegraph.

However, another Red Devils executive could have to leave the club. At the club since 2005 where he was trained, Marcus Rashford (26 years old) is having a difficult season. Author of 8 goals and 5 offerings in 40 matches, he missed his exercise. The right-hander who had extended in June 2023 with an XXL contract until June 2028, was unable to take charge of the team in the storm, unlike other players like Kobbie Mainoo (19 years old), Alejandro Garnacho ( 19 years old) and Rasmus Hojlund (21 years old) according to the management of the English club.

A complicated file

Indeed, Manchester United wants to rely on its young shoots who will not be transferable next season. A status that Marcus Rashford will not have. Losing momentum, the 26-year-old is considered by the Red Devils as possibly leaving in the event of an interesting offer. Open to discussion, the English club knows that Paris Saint-Germain, which will lose Kylian Mbappé leaving for Real Madrid, is an option, especially since in England, many are pushing for this movement.

However, it will be difficult to see Marcus Rashford leave Manchester United. Now having a salary of 325,000 pounds sterling per week, or 380,000 euros per week, the English player has emoluments which risk being a significant obstacle for many teams. In addition, his young age and his long contract mean that you will surely have to pay an XXL sum to attract him. An expensive file which risks scaring away many suitors. However, Marcus Rashford is no longer untransferable and this is a real turning point in his Mancunian adventure.
