Top Transfer Stories of the Day
Ruben Amorim’s exit as Manchester United manager could open the door for Marcus Rashford to make a return. The England forward has had a fruitful loan period at Barcelona, where the club possesses an option to sign him permanently for approximately €30 million. However, there’s uncertainty about whether Barcelona will exercise this option due to Rashford’s wage expectations, meaning he could still don the Manchester United jersey again.
