Rashford is one of United’s highest earners, with a basic wage in excess of £300,000 a week. Only a small number of clubs can afford that salary and, for a variety of reasons, some of them are not in the market.
In Spain, Barcelona’s financial issues are well known. Real Madrid are already struggling to find the right attacking combination from Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Jr and Jude Bellingham.
Atletico paid huge money to Manchester City for Julian Alvarez just before the summer transfer deadline.
Of England’s top clubs, Manchester City and Liverpool seem a bit of a stretch, even with City in such poor form. Arsenal need a central striker – and Rashford doesn’t like playing there. Chelsea appear to have spent enough. Tottenham are inconsistent but they are hardly likely to drop skipper Son Heung-min, who plays on the left.
Paris St-Germain have frequently been mentioned as a possible destination on a number of occasions down the years, but the French giants have always distanced themselves from such talk.
United have previously been linked with Randal Kolo Muani. However, even a swap deal is questionable given Rasmus Hojlund seems to be impressing as Amorim’s first choice in the lead attacking role.
The Saudi Pro League could make a huge statement by signing such an instantly recognisable figure from the Premier League aged only 27. However, the feeling is Rashford is not sold on that as a plan.
A loan involving some kind of wage contribution seems possible. But United have repeatedly spoken of their tight profit and sustainability rules (PSR) situation, as well as their commitment to abide by the rules, so paying to let a high earner play for someone else would be counter-productive.
