Marcus Rashford of Manchester United decides to play in the SPL with Cristiano Ronaldo: Reports
Marcus Rashford has reportedly shown no interest in moving to the Saudi Pro League, despite ongoing speculation about his future at Manchester United. The 27-year-old forward, who has struggled with form this season, with only four goals and one assist in 15 league appearances, was notably left out of the squad for the Manchester derby on December 15. This omission fueled rumors regarding his potential departure from the club.
While the Saudi Pro League has previously expressed interest in Rashford, particularly during the summer transfer window, the forward is reportedly not keen on a move to the Middle East. Instead, Rashford is determined to fight for his place at Old Trafford, as he prefers to continue his career in Europe.
Rashford, who is under contract with Manchester United until June 2028, has earned a hefty wage of £400,000 per week, which could limit his options within top European clubs. However, the Saudi Pro League remains a possible destination if Rashford’s stance changes.
In response to the rumors, Rashford shared with journalist Henry Winter that he is “ready for a new challenge” but emphasized that when he eventually leaves Manchester United, it will be on good terms. He stressed that he would not speak negatively about the club and would make a personal statement when the time comes, confirming his departure on his own terms.
