It’s no secret that Marcus Rashford seems to have been left out of Ruben Amorim’s squad in recent weeks.
It is reported below that Manchester United had sanctioned the possible sale of the 27-year-old player fast forward several weeks, things have hardly improved.
The England international, once the jewel in the crown at Old Trafford, was left out of the Portuguese manager’s squad for four games:
- Manchester City (A) 15/12
- Tottenham (A) 19/12
- Bournemouth (H) 22/12
- Wolves (A) 26/12
He missed a fifth game (Liverpool away) due to a bout of illness.
Rashford has registered seven goals and three assists in 24 appearances (in all competitions) in the 2024/25 campaign.
Marcus Rashford could move to the Bundesliga
There is an outlet for Marcus Rashford, if he wants it.
Christian Falk is now reporting that Borussia Dortmund are “considering a move” for the United striker. However, this ten coming after the Bundesliga outfit parted ways with Donyell Malen.
“It is true that Dortmund are considering a move for Marcus Rashford. The transfer has been discussed within the club, although it is not yet a hot topic. The Manchester United striker is on the shortlist along with other candidates “. the The BILD reporter told CaughtOffside in his exclusive Fact Files column.
“However, any move must be preceded by the sale of Donyell Malen. Rashford’s wages remain a major obstacle for BVB – at United, he earns more than €20m.
“Notably, clubs in Saudi Arabia are willing to almost double that and have offered a salary of €40 million. For this potential transfer to work, as is the case with Jadon Sancho, the Red Devils would have to be prepared to cover most of the salary.”
BVB may be forced to speed things up, of course, if there is somewhat questionable speculation Arsenal’s supposed interest in the footballer it’s really about the money.
At his best (and free of any internal club drama), there’s no doubt that Marcus Rashford is one of Europe’s leading attacking talents.
Perhaps an opportunity to rediscover himself on the continent, in a field equally trodden by his fellow English internationals Jadon Sancho and Jude Bellingham, could prove more than ideal.
In any case, escaping the incessant noise surrounding his future and status at Manchester United would certainly be a welcome prospect.
