News has been erupting over the last few days over Manchester United’s willingness to sell Marcus Rashford over the next two transfer markets.
Manchester United have recently revealed that they are happy to sell the majority of their squad to raise funds for a completely remodelled squad.
With Andre Onana, Matthijs de Ligt, Leny Yoro, Noussair Mazraoui, Kobbie Mainoo, Amad Diallo and 2 or 3 other unnamed stars listed as “unsellable”, unfortunately, the rest of the squad face the axe.
Rashford’s been at the club since the age of seven, however, his time at Old Trafford may be nearly over, with the club looking to suitors for the England international.
Despite seeing improvements in Rashford after having one-to-one training with Ruud van Nistelrooy, and developing further still under Ruben Amorim, United aren’t happy with their star.

Manchester United’s reasons for selling Marcus Rashford
There are concerns that some off-field factors and his lifestyle are distracting him from his football, affecting his on-pitch performance.
Further to this, Rashford is one of United’s highest-paid players, earning £325,000 per week.
With the financial struggles that the club are facing, the sale of Rashford would free up a considerable volume of the salary budget, whilst also generating funds for more transfers.
However, with Rashford being a graduate of the United Academy, it also means that his sale would count as 100% pure profit under Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR), supporting the club away from financial struggles even further.
Now, The Daily Mail has revealed that United are open to offers in the region of £40 million for Rashford, however, they may not come in January.
Recent reports claimed that Barcelona are interested in the striker, with PSG also looking at renewing interest. The French giants looked to Rashford in the summer as a replacement for Kylian Mbappe, however, nothing materialised.
