Unfortunately I'm thinking 35-45m he's a very risky buy.
Marcus Rashford (out)
- Thread starter Mainoonited
- Start date
Yep, on the wages he's currently on and given how he's playing (and the pace he seems to have lost) I'd be fine with 25 million and he's off the books.
Milan have got rid of Okafor and made space for Rashford, Napoli look like they're about to offload Kvara so there's a couple of options there at Milan or Napoli, see who wants him.
He has the McTominay and Lukaku link at Napoli which could play a part in his decision.

Rashford is far more risky. He's so lazy and lost some of his speed, there is a decent chance he would be useless for a club like AC Milan.
Sancho isn't as good physically in general, but he's technically better and works harder. He's never struggled to find a good team and even so we wouldn't get much for him either.
Loan Rashford to Milan with an obligation and sign Kvara for a transfer fee. Would this mean Kvara plays in the position that Bruno is currently occupying as the left sided 10?
And if he doesn't do well, which is entirely possible, he'll be worth even less
I think its more likely he performs OK to decent at best. He won't be setting the world on fire.
This is looking increasingly on now isn’t it?
You're probably right. Unless he either plays brilliantly at his loan club or will be willing to facilitate a move based on footballing pedigree and take a wage cut. Second scenario is less likely than the former, but both unlikely. Shame he ruled out Saudi. Would have been nice.
I firmly believe he will, and this is the frustration I have with him. Rashford is always a genuine goal threat when his head is right. He's been packing it in for 2 years here (and various seasons before then), but if he really applies himself, especially in a place like Italy, I feel he'll thrive for a short time (long enough to convince a team to want him) before the novelty wears off and he starts packing it in again.
Before every contract renewal his game has gone up many levels. He can definitely turn it on in Italy. I don't mind that we'll be sneered at for letting him go, I just want him out of our club

Happens because it’s Utd.
Can remember people laughing at us and claiming JLingz was a baller because he showed up for the odd game at West Ham.
They look pretty silly now the inevitable has played out.
That would be sufficient to improve his value from now in my view and I wouldn’t rule out that he does have a very strong few months - remember Lingard and he was nowhere near the player Rashford can be (still can’t believe we didn’t cash in on that WH spell).
No fecking chance we're going to get that and how can you just ignore 3/4 of the last 2 years?
Sounds like something Dyche would say!
I reckon in his head he was expecting all the big dogs to start bidding wars for him. Hopefully gets a reality check.
Loan him free with bullshit option to buy, enjoy 6 months of shirt sales boost, keep the tag and return him back
I assumed that when he gave that silly "new challenge" interview, he must have already lined up his next club. But it seems the two clubs interested in him are Como and West Ham. Honestly, I think West Ham is exactly his level.
I'm honestly not sure what his level is these past two and a half years. Certainly not of a PL footballer. Even West Ham wide men will be expected to beat his man now and again, and put in a shift work-rate wise.
His ego has been bruised after the rubbish clubs showing an interest
When do we expect the next fluff piece from his pr company?
Yeah I mean Bowen and Kudus are just objectively better right now than Rashford.
Goodbye, Lady Di?
Though our paths have never crossed
You had that way of strolling back
While those around you pressed?
The doubted you in training, but you
Pointed to your brain
You fed the hungry children
And then you took the Belfast plane
