Deadline Day on Monday comes very quickly for Manchester United. Intense work is being done to free up space in the salary budget for reinforcements, but so far only 84 percent of Antony’s salary has been taken over by Real Betis. Now it is reported that Marcus Rashford has found the club he wants to play for, where a financial deal is also realistic.
Manchester United’s former superstar has not played a game since the first part of December, in the last month clubs such as Borussia Dortmund, Napoli and Barcelona have been in the picture without anything concrete.
With a weekly wage of around £325,000 and a Manchester United that will both cut and recoup the sale of former academy players, there has been no deal.
Now, hyperactive transfer journalist Romano reports that Rashford has been convinced by the Aston Villa management and Unai Emery, plus the opportunity to finally play Champions League games again. Personal terms are in place, Romano reports that an agreement on a lease agreement is approaching with discussion of a purchase option.
