Marcus Rashford Linked with Aston Villa Return, PSG, and Multiple European Clubs
Marcus Rashford’s future remains uncertain as several clubs across Europe, including Aston Villa, PSG, Borussia Dortmund, Juventus, and AC Milan, are reportedly monitoring the Manchester United winger. A potential return to Villa, where he spent a accomplished loan spell last season, is gaining traction as his price tag is expected to decrease this summer. Rashford contributed 10 goal contributions in 17 appearances for Aston Villa, but the club deemed the initial £40 million asking price too high.
Recent reports indicate that Ollie Watkins, Aston Villa’s current forward, is struggling with a knee injury, possibly increasing the need for attacking reinforcements. Qualification for the Champions League next season could further incentivize Villa to pursue Rashford.
PSG have long been admirers of the 28-year-old, and Football Insider reports they have continued to track his progress this season, especially following his loan spell with Barcelona.
Borussia Dortmund previously expressed interest in Rashford during the January transfer window, before he opted for Aston Villa. The german club may revisit their interest in the summer, leveraging their track record of success with English players.
Italian clubs Juventus and AC Milan have also been linked with Rashford in the past. Juventus are considering forward options due to uncertainty surrounding Dusan Vlahovic’s long-term future, while AC Milan already boast a contingent of English players and held talks with Rashford’s agent last summer.
Saudi Pro League teams represent another potential destination, given their financial capacity to meet Rashford’s £300,000 weekly wage – a figure unlikely to be matched by most other suitors. Rashford previously rejected three offers from Saudi Arabian clubs in January, but they are expected to renew their interest.
