Paris Saint-Germain is reportedly considering a significant move to secure the services of Manchester United’s standout player, Marcus Rashford, in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The French club aims to fill the void expected to be left by Kylian Mbappe’s departure from Parc des Princes, as he is set to join Real Madrid on a free transfer when his contract with PSG expires in June.
With Mbappe’s departure looming, PSG is actively seeking a high-profile signing to strengthen their attacking lineup, with Liverpool’s Luis Diaz also being considered.
However, recent developments suggest that PSG has turned its attention to Rashford, despite his inconsistent performances this season, acknowledging his importance to Manchester United.
Although Rashford’s goal-scoring output has been lower this season compared to the previous one, PSG sees him as a crucial target for their squad in the post-Mbappe era.
According to reports from the Daily Mirror, PSG is prepared to make a substantial offer to tempt Rashford away from Old Trafford, with rumors hinting at a potential Β£75 million bid, although Manchester United values him closer to Β£100 million.
Despite signing a contract extension last summer, there have been rumors of discontent surrounding Rashford’s situation at Manchester United, fueled by incidents such as his absence from training following a night out in Northern Ireland.
With PSG poised to make a move for Rashford, the decision may ultimately lie with Manchester United’s new minority shareholder, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, as the summer transfer window approaches, making this a story worth closely monitoring.
