Marcus Rashford, who earns £15.6 million this year at Manchester United, will probably have to take a pay cut at his next club in the event of a sale, or be compensated for the loss of wages.
Over the past few days, it has been reported that Manchester United are open to selling Marcus Rashford, who has belonged to the club throughout his career if they get the right price.
The reason, according to the Daily Telegraph, is that Rashford’s lifestyle off the pitch is causing concern in “The Red Devils”. This, together with the fact that a sale of the 27-year-old will help finance a purchase of Viktor Gyökeres.
Now there is also information about the striker’s price tag. Man United to consider offers around £40 million, reports the Daily Mail. – Transfermarkt has set the value at 60 million euros, down from 85 million euros at the peak.
The British newspaper also claims that there will most likely be no such bids in January and that a deal in the upcoming transfer window will not happen.
The Manchester club needs more players to leave the club to raise money, including for Rúben Amorim’s rebuilding of the squad.
Man United therefore have a ‘Plan B’ in case they do not get a sale of Rashford or any of the other players who are said to be for sale. And that is to sell one of its jewels, Kobbie Mainoo or Alejandro Garnacho, both of which are actually said to be “unsellable”. It is therefore a move the club would rather not take.
Manchester United are currently in 13th place in the Premier League and play this weekend’s derby when they visit Manchester City. But first, the team will face Viktoria Plzeň at Doosan Aréna in the Europa League on Thursday night.
Rashford has seven goals, making him Manchester United’s top scorer and three assists in a total of 23 appearances this season.
