Manchester United Reluctant to Sell Rashford to Premier League Rivals Over Fear of Embarrassment
According to English media outlet iNews, Manchester United is hesitant to sell Marcus Rashford to Premier League rivals such as Tottenham, Arsenal, and Chelsea, fearing the embarrassment of him scoring against them. Despite interest from several European clubs, Rashford's high weekly wage of £325,000 and a £26 million buyout clause have complicated potential transfers. Tottenham had planned a £40 million bid last month, but United's hierarchy is reluctant to strengthen a domestic competitor. Rashford, who has two years left on his contract, still loves the club and has an ally in manager Carrick. A loan move is possible, but suitors are testing United's resolve. Rashford's preference remains a top Champions League club, and he is set to join a six-day training camp in Dublin ahead of a friendly against Leeds United.
