Rashford has attracted interest from many clubs this summer.

Saudi clubs have expressed interest in signing Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford. They are ready to shell out a mouth-watering £86 million to sign the player.

Clubs in Saudi Arabia’s Pro League are not slowing down, even after making significant expenditures last year.

Having enticed some of the greatest players in football to leave Europe, such as N’Golo Kante and Karim Benzema of France, Saudi teams are continuing new signings. They seem to be aiming for one of the most well-liked players in the Premier League, as reported by recent sources.

Middle Eastern teams are keen to acquire Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford, with some willing to submit a whopping £86 million (€100 million) to acquire the England winger.

Even though United are gearing up for Friday’s Premier League season opener against Fulham, reports such as this indicate, the Red Devils are open to considering any and all offers for the struggling 26-year-old. A price as high as £86 million would undoubtedly force talks.

Even though Rashford has played his whole career at United, a shift of environment would be beneficial. The United Academy player has suffered from inconsistent performances in past years but continues to be an important player for the club.

Furthermore, even if Saudi Arabia might not be every player’s idea of a “challenge,” the contracts that the Saudi Pro League teams offer to players can frequently be what makes a difference.

With a weekly salary of £300,000, Rashford is already one of United’s highest earners. Therefore, any Saudi club hoping to entice the 26-year-old with a big contract will need to spend a tonne of money to turn the number 10 for United into one of the highest-paid players in sports.

If not the highest-paid player in the world. But Rashford is unlikely to be ready for the move. He would feel he still can get back to his prime and make a big difference for a big club in Europe.
