From scoring 40 goals in all competitions just last year and signing a new deal to potentially being moved on this summer amid an environment of toxicity and frustration.

The Peoples Person recently relayed a report that United will be willing to listen to credible offers for the player and if he wants, he can move on.

However, not many would have predicted that the list of interested parties for Rashford would include Arsenal!

That’s exactly what TEAMtalk report as they say the Gunners are plotting a shock move for the United academy graduate.

It is a move even the spectre of which has the potential to create an earth-shattering effect in the Premier League.

While the rivalry between Arsenal and United isn’t nearly as competitive as it is with Liverpool and Manchester City, Rashford is much more than just another player for United.

Despite failing this season and copping a lot of criticism, he is a Manchester-born and bred star who has come to symbolise United during his career.

Therefore, while it is certainly possible that Arsenal will be plotting a move for him, it would be startling if that road continues any further.

Certainly, Sir Jim Ratcliffe wouldn’t want one of his first transfer acts as owner to sell an academy product to competitive rivals!

As for Arsenal, their potential, if unlikely interest in Rashford is easy enough to make sense of.

Their attacking reinforcements this season have flourished but they have lacked a clear goalscorer which Rashford showed last season he has the potential to be.

Along with fellow English players like Bukayo Saka, Arteta could be trying to land a hammer blow to his rivals while strengthening his own squad.

Still, this one seems to be straight out of an Arsenal brief to unsettle United as the chances of the Red Devils sanctioning this move, even if Rashford wants it, are next to nil.

The post Arsenal plot shock move for Marcus Rashford amid uncertainty over his future appeared first on Man United News And Transfer News | The Peoples Person.

Only after raising enough capital through a large-scale summer clearout can the club start thinking about recruitment.

As per most reports, only the young trio of Kobbie Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund are safe from the potential cull.

Big name players such as Casemiro, Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford could all be moved on with the club’s stance regarding the Mancunian creating a lot of headlines.

The England international, who was last season’s top scorer with 30 goals, has looked a shadow of his former self with only eight goals to his name this year.

Rashford’s drop-off

More than a lack of goals, the 26-year-old’s lack of effort and tendency to give up whenever things do not go his way have been the biggest concerns. He has almost regressed to the dismal level he was showing during former interim manager Ralf Rangnick’s short reign.

But it has been his off-field controversies that have been the biggest letdown with the player spotted partying after a derby defeat and getting drunk and calling in sick ahead of training.

His teammates and manager were far from impressed with fans also calling the boyhood club fan out for his misdemeanors off the field and poor displays on it.

The Peoples Person recently relayed that the forward wants to stay and fight for his place and repay the club for the faith they had in him.

While the club is said to be open to a sale, they will only do so in the event of receiving a huge offer. Now, The Sun have revealed that the player will resist any attempts to move him on as he does not want to leave Manchester.

The only way a move can transpire is if the club agrees to pay-off the player. INEOS are simply in no position to do so considering the player signed a new five-year deal only last year.

“Marcus Rashford will resist any attempt by Manchester United to sell him this summer. Rashford would raise the most cash because any sale of an academy product would become pure profit. A transfer would allow United to splash more money in the summer.

“But forward Rashford, 26, does not want to leave his boyhood club as he is happy in Manchester. Man Utd face handing Rashford a massive pay-off if they try to force him out the door.”

Transfer rumours gathering pace

It is unlikely that too many clubs can afford his wages and while Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich and Tottenham Hotspur have been linked with a move, it is likely that Rashford stays put for now.

Rashford has the talent to be a world-beater and at his age, he should be close to his prime. But his inconsistency is a huge deterrent for any club wanting to win things.

Another concern for INEOS to solve is the fact that Ten Hag’s relationship with the England international has broken down completely with the pair hardly speaking.

“Rashford’s relationship with manager Erik ten Hag has also broken down to the point where the pair barely speak.”

This could prove to be another big blow to Ten Hag’s ambitions of staying. Either Ten Hag or the new manager needs to coax out the best from Rashford next season. But if he fails to prove his worth again, an exit will become a realistic option in 2025.

The post Manchester United need to agree huge pay-off to force Marcus Rashford to leave appeared first on Man United News And Transfer News | The Peoples Person.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe is plotting a large-scale summer clearout and the list includes high-profile names such as Casemiro and even Marcus Rashford.

The Mancunian signed a new five-year deal last season after a scintillating season where he scored 30 times across all competitions while also providing 10 assists.

His form has fallen off a cliff this season, with the Englishman netting only eight times while assisting five goals. His lackadaisical approach when on the field, lack of effort have infuriated fans who have called for the player to be sold.

Rashford on the market

Most importantly, his off-field misdemeanors including partying after a derby defeat and calling in sick after a 12-hour night-out have severely damaged his reputation among his teammates, his manager and with the fans.

As recently relayed by The Peoples Person, the England international wants to stay and fight for his place and repay the club for having faith in him but rumours of a potential split keep gathering pace.

The Red Devils will only sell if an outstanding offer is received, which is unlikely considering the player’s inconsistent form and his humongous wages of £375,000 per week including bonuses (as per Capology).

Fichajes have now claimed that three clubs are circling including one surprise Premier League outfit — Paris Saint-Germain, Bayern Munich and Tottenham Hotspur.

PSG’s interest is well-known at this point with the French giants looking at the United academy graduate as a replacement for Kylian Mbappe, who is set to leave at the end of the current campaign.

But the other two are surprise candidates. Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou wants a versatile forward and Rashford can play as both winger and No 9. Bayern could pounce if Leroy Sane ends up jumping ship.

“Under the direction of coach Ange Postecoglou, the London club is looking to strengthen its offensive line, and Rashford emerges as an attractive option thanks to his ability to perform both as a winger on both wings and in the number 9 position.

“With the possible departure of Leroy Sané on the horizon, the Bavarian team considers Rashford as a possible candidate to reinforce their squad.”

Surprise suitors galore

Arsenal have also been linked but Charles Watts has downplayed those comments stating the Gunners are unlikely to go anywhere near the player.

“Marcus Rashford’s name seems to pop up now again on social media in connection with Arsenal. There’s not really been any links in terms of a transfer, but it seems to be a talking point amongst fans from time to time.

“We’ll have to wait and see if his future lies away from Old Trafford, but if he does go, I don’t see Arsenal as a possible destination. He’s on big wages and I just don’t see Arsenal going near them. A forward who can play out wide is certainly a priority for Arsenal, but I don’t see that being Rashford.”

More twists and turns are expected between now and the end of the season and it will be interesting to see where the boyhood United fan’s future ultimately lies.

The post Tottenham Hotspur and Bayern Munich among surprise suitors for Marcus Rashford appeared first on Man United News And Transfer News | The Peoples Person.

Manchester United would be prepared to sell academy product Marcus Rashford this summer if someone offered over £70 million.

The form and future of the England international has been one of the most discussed topics of an abysmal 2023/2024 campaign.

He has been a shadow of his former self on the pitch and has courted controversy off it, between his drinking antics in Northern Ireland’s capital or speaking out publicly about the perceived abuse he has been facing this year.

This has resulted in numerous outlets and pundits discussing a possible departure from the club, with even the famously non-controversial sports journalist Andy Mitten stating yesterday that Rashford would probably be better off leaving the club this summer.

However, the picture is confusing due to the fact as soon as one report indicates United want to sell Rashford then another soon appears stating he wants to stay.

For example, it was reported earlier this week that United would be willing to sell most of their first-team squad, with the exception of a collection of youngsters.

Rashford has been very often linked to Paris Saint-Germain and even Arsenal in the past. The 26 year old has denied that he wants to leave the club, however, writing in the Player’s Tribune about his love for the football club.

ESPN adds more fuel to the fire though in regard to a potential exit by claiming that United have a set price in mind that would convince them to part ways with the player who is one game away from making 400 appearances for the club.

“Manchester United are not expecting offers for Marcus Rashford, a source has told ESPN, believing that there is no market for the England striker this summer.”

However, “United’s financial position means they would consider bids of north of £70 million for Rashford if they were received, but they are not expecting any team to match that valuation. The club are not actively looking to offload the player.”

“A source has told ESPN there is a feeling at Old Trafford that only Paris Saint-Germain could meet United’s fee demands and match Rashford’s wage request.”

In all likelihood it seems Rashford probably falls into the category of Bruno Fernandes, Andre Onana and Diogo Dalot as players who INEOS would rather keep but would not turn down ludicrous money for, as only Kobbie Mainoo, Alejandro Garnacho and Rasmus Hojlund are totally off limits.

However, if this figure is indeed true, teams at least have a number to work off should they try and attract the Manchester United star.
