The last time we saw the player pulling in £300,000 in weekly wages on the pitch was in mid-December. Then it was 31 minutes against Nottingham Forest. Before that 31 minutes against Arsenal. The 27-year-old has directly stated that he is ready for “new challenges”, it is clear that Amorim does not bother to spend time on the former academy player. A big game has been announced for Rashford’s signature, but where sky-high wages, United’s demand for solid sales income and the player’s lack of big games over the past year and a half, play along.
The Athletic reports that there is concrete interest from AC Milan, Juventus, various Premier League clubs – and Borussia Dortmund. The latter took on the task of getting Jadon Sancho back into match shape in the second part of last season with great success.
Common to all of them is that a lease agreement is most likely. The English media reports Manchester United will therefore probably have to bear a significant part of the wage cost for Rashford. So for Milan, Juventus and Dortmund, it’s all about dampening the enthusiasm so that United have to bear the lion’s share of the salary.
The decision on whether Rashford will be sent out, or work for the wages in the United shirt, has still not been made.
Rashford is also linked with Napoli, we firmly believe the 27-year-old should spend half a season with “stagnant Premier League star whisperer” Antonio Conte.
