Reports suggest that Man United are willing to part ways with Marcus Rashford during the January transfer window, setting his valuation at just £40 million ($51 million) thereby making him the first possible exit under the new head coach Ruben Amorim in the 2025 transfer window.

According to the Daily Mail, the club is not anticipating substantial bids for the England international but sees his sale as a priority. United need to offload players to comply with profit and sustainability regulations, and as a homegrown player, Rashford's transfer would be considered pure profit on their financial records.

Rashford’s market value has plummeted due to underwhelming performances over the past two seasons. While Manchester United previously valued him at over £100 million, they now face diminished interest and lower offers. Should no suitable bids emerge, the club may consider alternative sales, including players like Alejandro Garnacho or Kobbie Mainoo.

Offloading Rashford would provide a financial lift for United, who are reportedly keen to move on from the 27-year-old amid concerns about his lifestyle and commitment. Rashford has scored four goals in 15 Premier League appearances in the 2024-25 season and has recently been benched in matches against Arsenal and Nottingham Forest.

A product of Manchester United’s youth academy, Rashford joined the club at the age of seven. He made an explosive first-team debut in February 2016, scoring twice against Midtjylland in the UEFA Europa League, followed by another brace in his Premier League debut against Arsenal just three days later.

He also found the net in his first Manchester derby, as well as on his EFL Cup and UEFA Champions League debuts. Over the years, Rashford has won an impressive collection of honors with United, including two FA Cups, two EFL Cups, the FA Community Shield, and the UEFA Europa League.

Marcus Rashford who recently signed a contract extension with Manchester United could be wearing the jersey of another club in no distant time. Sky Germany confirmed on its website on Tuesday, December 10, 2024, that the Red Devils are open to receiving offers for the England international.

The 27-year-old has scored 138 goals for United since he broke into the first team as an 18-year-old in 2016, but following a stunning campaign in 2022-23, he has failed to replicate that form since. The forward scored 30 goals during that amazing season, the performance got him a new five-year deal worth a reported £ 325,000 per week.

It is believed Rashford's salary, is another reason why the club are open to selling him as he is one of the club's highest earners, which means that if he was to leave it would be something that would benefit United's Financial Fair Play (FFP) situation.

Manchester United ayers abandoned the club’s plans to wear an Adidas jacket in support of the LGBTQ+ community ahead of Sunday’s Premier League match against Everton after defender Noussair Mazraoui refused to join the initiative.

The Premier League have shown support to the LGBTQ+ community with the players wearing Rainbow Laces period in the past two seasons. United’s players have decided to wear a pride-themed jersey to warm up ahead of games, as well as a similar concept jacket to walk out for the game.

Manchester United were only planning a walk-out jacket but Mazraoui joined the Red Devils for £15m during the summer from Bayern Munich. He had initially told his teammates he was not prepared to wear the outfit, citing his Muslim faith as the reason.

The team then decided that no players would wear the tracksuit so that Mazraoui would not be the only one seen publicly refusing to wear it.

Ipswich Town captain Sam Morsy, also a practising Muslim, refused to wear a rainbow armband for religious reasons in his club’s two Rainbow Laces fixtures to support the LGBTQ community while Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi wore the armband but wrote religious messages on the armband.

"He’s incredibly fast, good with the ball, and has the qualities needed for high pressing, especially in one-on-one situations. We need to manage his minutes carefully as he integrates fully, but I’m really excited to see him in action."

Yoro's inclusion comes as Lisandro Martinez and Kobbie Mainoo are unavailable due to suspension after accumulating five yellow cards. While the task of facing Arsenal is undoubtedly challenging, the teenager's involvement underscores Amorim’s trust in his potential and marks a significant milestone in the defender's burgeoning career.

United fans will be keen to see how the team performs as they look to bounce back from recent struggles and secure a vital result in this top-tier encounter.

As Manchester United football fans await a new era under Ruben Amorim, reports have indicated that the Portuguese international is already making possible player transfer moves ahead of the January 2025 transfer window.

Manchester United have reportedly made inquiries about Bayern Munich's Leroy Sané, with the German winger potentially nearing an exit from the Allianz Arena.

Following a difficult start to the season, Manchester United parted ways with Erik ten Hag and appointed Sporting CP's Ruben Amorim as their new head coach. In an effort to support Amorim’s vision, the club is now looking to strengthen its attack in the January transfer window.

According to BILD, United have contacted Bayern about Sané’s availability this January, though the winger could also become available as a free agent in the summer of 2025. Antony is United’s primary option on the right wing, while Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho favour the left side, highlighting the need for additional right-wing options.

Meanwhile, Arsenal, managed by Mikel Arteta, are also interested in signing Sané, though there’s a possibility he may choose to extend his contract with Bayern Munich, a decision that could alter Arsenal’s transfer strategy.

Man United midfielder Mason Mount has made a notable step forward in his recovery by returning to full training this week. Mount, who has been out of action since late September following a 3-0 loss to Tottenham, had missed several crucial matches across all competitions due to his injury. Looking refreshed and positive, the sight of him back on the training pitch has provided a welcome boost for both fans and the team.

The club has confirmed that Mount will not be rushed back into competitive action to avoid re-injury risk. While he participated fully with the group on Monday, United’s medical team is taking a cautious approach, allowing the 25-year-old time to regain his match fitness gradually.

After an intense rehabilitation process, Mount is determined to be available for selection soon giving a huge player boost to Man United going into the club's upcoming fixtures against PAOK in the Europa League on Thursday and Leicester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

When will Amorim start coaching Man United?

With interim coach Ruud van Nistelrooy overseeing these two matches, Mount’s return comes at a strategic time as the team prepares for a new chapter under incoming head coach Ruben Amorim.

The Portuguese manager is expected to make his managerial debut for United in an away fixture against Ipswich Town on November 24, after the international break. Mount is reportedly eager to impress Amorim and reclaim his role in United’s midfield, where his pressing ability and presence have been missed.

In addition to Mount, full-back Tyrell Malacia, another recent absentee, also joined the training session, signalling progress in his own recovery. The Dutch defender appeared to be in good spirits as he worked toward a full return to fitness.

With these players inching closer to match readiness, Manchester United hopes to strengthen their squad for the demanding stretch of fixtures ahead. Fans are eagerly anticipating Mount’s return to the pitch, confident that his commitment and work ethic during the recovery process will translate into impactful performances upon his comeback.

Ruud van Nistelrooy was speaking in a pre-match press conference ahead of Manchester United's Carabao Cup game against Leicester City at Old Trafford today ( Wednesday, October 30, 2024). The Dutchman was appointed after Erik Ten Hag was sacked after a series of bad results across all results since the beginning of this season ( 2024/25).

What did Ruud van Nistelrooy say?

The Dutchman said it was an emotional experience for him to take charge of the club on an interim basis and it was also sad for him to see Erik Ten Hag leave the club.

"As I am sure everyone can imagine, I am writing these notes with a huge amount of mixed emotions. Erik ten Hag brought me back to Manchester United in the summer and, while I have only been part of the coaching staff here for a few months, I will always be grateful to him for giving me the opportunity, and I am saddened to see him leave. Even on an interim basis, it is a great honour to manage the club I love for however long I am asked to do so. I can promise that I will continue to give my all, in whatever capacity, to try to turn around our fortunes. Despite our results, I am loving being back at Old Trafford and working with the team and staff every day. We’ve seen the squad’s potential at times this season, but clearly not often enough."

He continued,

Now is the time for everyone at the club to work together, give everything and turn this season around while we have time. From my experiences as both a player and a coach here, I can say for sure that when players, staff and supporters pull together, Manchester United can be unstoppable. When I returned in the summer as Erik’s assistant, it was because I believe that Manchester United can climb back to the levels that I knew here as a player. I still have that belief, but it will take time and a lot of hard work. The first step is to restore the winning habit, starting at Old Trafford this evening. I know first-hand the positive effect that our wonderful fans can have on the team, so please get behind the players as we fight together to move a step closer to Wembley.”

Ruben Amorim is reportedly expected to replace Erik Ten Hag permanently after Manchester United agreed to pay his buy-out clause to Sporting Lisbon.
