BREAKING NEWS : Marcus Rashford was ‘lined up for a Premier League switch’ following a transfer agreement with Manchester United.

Here’s the latest on Marcus Rashford’s potential move:

Premier League Switch on the Horizon
Newcastle United are reportedly preparing a year-long loan deal for Rashford, keen to plug him into their Champions League campaign. They believe they can offer him the right platform to revive his career, though Manchester United would apparently prefer a permanent transfer

Rashford, who starred on loan at Aston Villa with 4 goals and 6 assists in 17 games, is reportedly willing to take a salary cut to secure his move. His weekly wages—rumoured around £325k–£350k—have been cited as a stumbling block

Barcelona Still in the Frame
Despite Barcelona’s interest—Rashford had meetings with their sporting director Deco—the Spanish club are apparently prioritizing Nico Williams and Luis Díaz, largely due to tighter financial constraints

Barcelona views Rashford as a “financially accessible” option at around £40 million, though they’re leaning toward a loan with option to buy, with him prepared for a pay cut

Financial and Contractual Dynamics
Manchester United have placed Rashford on the transfer list, and while they remain open to loan options, a permanent exit is strongly favoured

Reports suggest United are also asking for a player swap (possibly Ronald Araujo) in any deal involving Barcelona
