Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) is reportedly hesitant to meet Manchester United’s £50 million asking price for Marcus Rashford, despite maintaining interest in the England forward.
According to *CaughtOffside*, while PSG is keen on adding Rashford to their squad, the club is wary of spending such a high fee on a player whose form has declined in recent seasons.
Once regarded as one of football’s top attacking talents, Rashford has faced struggles with inconsistent performances and off-field controversies.
Under Ruben Amorim’s management, his role at Manchester United has diminished, casting doubt on his future at Old Trafford.
Speculation about Rashford’s potential exit intensified after he was benched for the Manchester derby and omitted from the squad entirely for United’s Carabao Cup clash against Tottenham.
Despite Amorim’s public praise of Rashford’s value to the team, these decisions have added to the player’s frustration and fueled transfer rumors.
Sources suggest that both Amorim and United’s new co-owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, are open to selling Rashford if their £50 million valuation is met.
PSG, a long-time admirer of Rashford, sees him as a potential asset to bolster their attack under manager Luis Enrique.
However, concerns about his recent struggles have made the French club cautious about committing such a significant amount.
PSG is reportedly exploring other options, reluctant to make a substantial financial investment in a player who has yet to regain his peak form.
For Rashford, a move to PSG could provide a fresh start and an opportunity to revive his career. For Manchester United, selling him could free up funds to reinvest in the squad.
As of now, no deal has been finalized, leaving Rashford’s future uncertain. Both clubs are carefully considering the risks and potential benefits of a transfer as negotiations continue.
