I think I’m ready to take on a new challenge. The day I leave, it will be without hard feelings. I will not make any negative comments about Manchester United. I’ve seen how other players have left in the past and I don’t want to be that person. I will always be a Red Devil at heart. It’s disappointing to be left out of a derby, but it happened, we won the game, so let’s move on“. Here is what Marcus Rashford (27) recently said, more than ever about leaving Manchester United. Left out of the group against Manchester City and once again absent from the match sheet for the trip to Tottenham last Thursday, the number 10 of the Red Devils no longer enters into Ruben Amorim’s plans and logically shakes up the market .

With this in mind, FC Barcelona has recently been cited as a possible destination while the Wythenshawe native’s name has also been associated with Paris Saint-Germain in recent months. Problem for the Culers? The 16 million euros net salary of the person concerned per season, making his transaction in Catalonia almost impossible. Recently, Sky Sports also affirmed that, for the moment, Barça could not undertake such an operation. An economic constraint that Saudi Arabia, another possible destination, will not encounter. This Saturday, The Mirror relays, as such, new information regarding this heated issue.

A Saudi trio stands out!

Thus, according to the British media, three Saudi leaders stand out in the race for Marcus Rashford, namely Al-Ittihad, Al-Ahli and Al-Qadsiah. The report says Al-Ahli – which already boasts stars like ex-Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino and ex-Brentford striker Ivan Toney – has the most interest “concrete”while Al-Qadsiah and Al-Ittihad continue to monitor the situation of the England international (60 caps, 17 goals). However, the English press recalls that in the event of an official offer from Al-Ahli for the 1m85 right-hander, the Saudi team will have to, initially, sell a star from its squad due to the regulations of the Saudi Pro League.

And if the person concerned would, for his part, favor a transfer to a top European team, Saudi Arabia has already prepared everything to try to convince him. In addition to financial considerations and this ability to offer a real golden bridge to the Red Devil, the new Eldorado of world football plans to place Michael Emenalo – who has already worked as sporting director of Chelsea and now manages the Saudi elite – at the helm. head of the negotiations, on behalf of all interested clubs. Enough to win your case and attract the man who has 7 goals and 3 assists in 24 appearances in all competitions this season? Answer in the coming weeks…
