Manchester United Transfer News: Marcus Rashford, an England international who is 25 years old, will not be sold by Manchester United for less than £120 million
Manchester United Transfer News: Manchester United have reportedly put Marcus Rashford’s transfer fee at £120 million. The 25-year-old has been on fire as of late. With just 16 months remaining on his contract, several European teams are keeping a close watch on him.
Extending his current £200,000 per week deal is United’s first aim. They want him to sign a new long-term deal with the club and are prepared to pay him £300,000 per week to do so. But, an agreement has not been reached as of yet.
Should they be unable to win over the English international in the next months, they may have to sell him this summer. On the other hand, they won’t sell him for less than £120 million. After returning from the FIFA World Cup 2022, Rashford has been on a whole other level.
Manchester United Transfer News: What’s the matter?
He’s been single-handedly deciding games and racking up goals for pleasure. The 25-year-old’s two goals helped the Red Devils to a 3-0 victory against Leicester City at Old Trafford on Sunday. In United’s previous seven home games, Rashford has scored at Old Trafford.
He has been involved in 32 goals in 36 games so far this season, which are just amazing numbers. The 25-year-old has scored a total of 24 goals in all competitions. He has scored 14 of his goals in the English Premier League.
The United forward’s contributions to Erik ten Hag’s squad this season have been crucial. And he’s a big reason why the Red Devils are still in all four tournaments. The Holland manager is hoping to get a contract extension in the near future.

What’s next for Marcus Rashford; will he be leaving or extending?
The major teams in Europe are keeping an eye on him since his contract only has 16 months remaining. The 25-year-old has drawn the attention of Real Madrid and Barcelona, two of Spain’s biggest clubs. The Blancos need to find a forward to ultimately replace Karim Benzema as their top scorer. The addition of Rashford will unquestionably be beneficial to their success.
In the meanwhile, the Catalan giants are eager to sign him to play at Camp Nou. Xavi is looking to bolster his squad with additional offensive options so that they can compete for trophies. In order to improve their performance in the Champions League next season, Barcelona will be interested in signing the England international.
The teams will have to spend a fortune on the United striker if they want to sign him. If they want to sign Rashford this summer, they will need to pay £120 million. In the meantime, his contract status will play a role. Also, they will have to compete with PSG, who have shown interest in the 25-year-old for some time.
