Marcus Rashford Transfer Update: Three Saudi Clubs Express Interest as INEOS Approves January Move
Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford could be on the move this January, with three Saudi Pro League clubs reportedly vying for his signature. INEOS, United’s co-owners, are open to letting the England international leave during the winter transfer window.
Key Points:
• Saudi Interest: Al-Ahli, Al-Ittihad, and Al-Qadsiah have expressed interest in Rashford.
• INEOS Decision: The ownership group is reportedly ready to facilitate Rashford’s exit.
• Potential Swap: Al-Ahli may offload Roberto Firmino to make room for Rashford.
The Story So Far
Rashford recently hinted at a desire for a new challenge, and sources suggest the striker is prepared to leave Old Trafford in January. INEOS has signaled its willingness to part ways with the player, fueling speculation about his next destination.
According to talkSPORT, Al-Ahli leads the race to sign Rashford but must first sell or de-register one of their current foreign players. The Saudi club is even considering selling Roberto Firmino, who joined from Liverpool in 2023, amid interest from Fenerbahce and Al-Tauwoun.
What’s Next for United?
While Rashford’s potential departure dominates headlines, Manchester United will return to Premier League action this Sunday against Bournemouth at Old Trafford.
