MAN UNITED 'OPEN TO SELLING MARCUS RASHFORD AFTER STAR'S FALLOUT WITH ERIK TEN HAG... AND CLUB ARE PREPARED TO DROP £80M ASKING PRICE'
- LISTEN to It's All Kicking Off! EUROS DAILY: ‘Gareth Southgate will manage Man United one day’
Manchester United are reportedly willing to listen to offers for Marcus Rashford this summer.
The club decided to keep manager Erik ten Hag following a performance review and that has had implications for Rashford's situation, according to The Sun.
United are now said to be open to cashing in on the forward, whose contract expires in 2028.
They will want £80million for their No10 but may have to accept nearer £60m following his drop in form last season.
Coming off the back of his most prolific season to date at club level in 2022-23, Rashford failed to maintain his goalscoring form in the recent campaign.
Across 43 appearances in all competitions, the 26-year-old managed just eight goals, with reports of his behaviour off the pitch only further damaging his reputation at the club.
Reports towards the end of the season claimed PSG had earmarked Rashford as a potential replacement for their departing talisman Kylian Mbappe, having previously made attempts to sign the England international.
However, Rashford is said to be determined to stay at Old Trafford this summer and acknowledged that his performances fell below par in Erik ten Hag's second season at the club.
Rashford's poor club form last season also saw him left out of Gareth Southgate's England squad for Euro 2024.
The decision marked the first time Rashford had missed a major tournament for the Three Lions in his senior career, having featured in Roy Hodgson's squad at the 2016 Euros in France aged just 18.
Southgate's tactics have come under heavy criticism with his side struggling to create chances, and Rashford's brother and agent, Dwaine Maynard, took to social media to claim Rashford could have been England's attacking impetus.
