Fenerbahce target Manchester United star amid uncertain M16 future

While many fans hope that Rashford still turns thing around at Carrington, there is growing belief that the England international is likely to don different colours next season. From rising through the ranks and scoring on his debut in the Champions League, to falling off with the manager and getting loaned out… the Wythenshawe-born talent has seen it all in the last ten years.

Fenerbahce trying to test the waters for Manchester United star Marcus Rashford

It looks like the end of the road is nearing for Marcus Rashford at Manchester United as we approach the business-end of the transfer market. The England international has been through thick and thin at M16, but it looks like there is no going back from the breakdown in relationship with Ruben Amorim. The Red Devils are trying hard to find a potential suitor for the prolific winger.

It was reported earlier that the 27-year-old reported back to Carrington to train this week, despite being linked with a move away from the club. Rashford has been linked with a £40m move to Barcelona in recent weeks as an alternative to Liverpool’s Luis Diaz. The aforementioned report also stated that the Englishman has told United that he wishes to move on from the club in the summer.

Now, there is a new twist in the transfer saga involving the prolific winger. As per Fotomac, Fenerbahce are advancing in talks to sign Rashford on a loan with an option to buy. The Turkish club’s director of football is flying to England to hold talks with the Red Devils over a potential deal. The report also adds that Jose Mourinho ‘personally intervened’ to inquire about the winger’s intentions, and the Englishman has given the ‘green light’ for the move.

It remains to be seen how the transfer saga evolves in the coming weeks. It is important to note that the only problem for any potential suitor would be the astronomical wages the United winger is on. A permanent deal for the 27-year-old will only be done if he agrees to lower his wage demands for a move in the summer. With that being said, Manchester United will look to sign a quality replacement for next season as soon as the Wythenshawe-born talent leaves the Red Devils for pastures new.
