Newcastle United have serious interest in one Man United star. The player has fallen out of favour at Old Trafford. He was sent already away on loan in the January transfer window. He is being valued at £40 million by the Red Devils.
Manchester United are keen to sign some top players this summer. They have signed Cunha from Wolves for £62.5 million. Now, they are focused on signing Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford. He will also cost around £60 million. Lastly, the Red Devils also want a new striker who can cost a high transfer fee too.
Hence, United are in need of raising funds as it will also help to comply with PSR. They have made as much as 6 attackers available for sale. One of them is Marcus Rashford who was on loan at Aston Villa for half of the 2024/25 season. He rejected joining Villa permanently despite Unai Emery showing strong interest.

According to Caught Offside, Newcastle are showing strong interet in Rashford. The Magpies are back in the Champions League and are keen to improve their attacking unit. Rashford is highly versatile due to which Eddie Howe views him as a key addition this summer.
Rashford wanted to sign for Barcelona this summer. But, the Spanish giants are close to sign Nico Williams. Hence, they may not go after Rashford due to both of them having same profile. As a result, the Englishman will need to look for new clubs.
Newcastle can be tempting destination for Rashford. United are willing to sell him for £40 million. But, the reports say that the Magpies are planning to sign the 27 year old on loan. This may cause stumbling block in potential deal as the Red Devils want to sell him permanently.
