If Marcus Rashford leaves Manchester United, one of La Liga's elite clubs would be his “dream” destination, according to Fabrizio Romano.
The United academy graduate has suffered a dip in form over the past 18 months, scoring a total of 11 Premier League goals since the summer of 2023. Despite promising reaction for the appointment of Ruben Amorim, Rashford has been related to a shocking movement away from his childhood club.
Amorim dismissed Rashford and Garnacho ahead of Sunday's Manchester derby, prompting the Englishman to give an explosive interview regarding his future at the club.
Rashford has even openly admitted it that he is “ready for a new challenge”. According to the last episode in Fabrizio Romano's YouTube channelthis challenge can lead him to La Liga, as the striker's “dream” is to play in Spain.
Romano insists there has been “no formal offer” and United are still waiting to engage in any advanced negotiations. Clubs from the Saudi Pro League are thought to be “very attentive” to the situation, but no party has made a concrete offer.
Real Madrid have spent the first half of the season trying and largely failing to find space for both Vinicius Junior and Kylian Mbappe – there seems little reason to add another left winger to the mix. Barcelona's ongoing financial situation makes it quite difficult to keep hold of their existing players, leaving Atletico Madrid as the only possible Spanish destination.
What seems clearer is United's desire to sell their high-earning, under-performing striker. Romano claims Rashford's “poor training attitude” was behind his absence from Sunday's derby. Amorim touched a number of factors when discussing his shock decision at the time, but did his best to quash any transfer speculation on Wednesday.
of The Portuguese boss insisted to the assembled media that he wants to “help” and “push Rashford to the best levels he has shown me in the past”.
