Newcastle United are preparing an offer to sign Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford. The Toon want to “rescue” Rashford from his current limbo, as he faces the prospect of being frozen out at Old Trafford unless he secures a move away.
The 27-year-old isn’t viewed as a replacement for Alexander Isak by Newcastle boss Eddie Howe; instead he would be expected to provide competition for the Sweden international from the bench. It’s also unclear how much Rashford’s transfer will cost this summer, as his stock is on the rise following an eye-catching loan spell at Aston Villa.
