Report: Tottenham are now ready to sign 'unbelievable' Manchester United star before deadline day
Yesterday at 01:15 AM
Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United are both still very active in the January transfer window.
The two Premier League clubs have had a very difficult season so far. United are currently 12th in the table, while Spurs are three places and five points below them.
Despite their positions, neither club have made an outfield signing yet. Tottenham have brought in Antonin Kinsky, but that’s it so far. United are yet to complete a deal, but it looks like Patrick Dorgu is on his way to Old Trafford now.
Soon, the two clubs could be involved in a transfer between themselves in what could be the most eye-catching deal of the window.
Tottenham are ready to offer Marcus Rashford a way out of Manchester United
Marcus Rashford is going through a really difficult time at Manchester United.
Ruben Amorim has kept him out of the side for over a month now, and he hasn’t played a minute of football in any of United’s last 11 games in all competitions.
It is clear as day that the Red Devils want to get rid of Rashford in this window, but time is running out over a permanent deal.
However, a loan could still be an option.
The Daily Mail claim that a number of clubs remain interested in signing Rashford this month. Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona are among them, as are West Ham United, Juventus, Napoli and Galatasaray.
The report claims that Tottenham are also ‘ready to offer him an escape route from Old Trafford for the remainder of the season’.
Spurs have multiple players out injured at the moment including Dominic Solanke. Rashford, if Tottenham can get him, would offer options to Ange Postecoglou in attack.
Rashford has his heart set on one club
Rashford has publicly claimed that he would like a new challenge.
The England international, who has been hailed as an ‘unbelievable’ player by Alan Shearer on Rest is Football, has been at Manchester United all his career, but a move away now is the best thing for all parties involved.
Tottenham would be a great destination for Rashford, but the report claims that he has his heart set on a move to Barcelona in this window.
However, the Catalans are struggling to make room for him in their squad as well as on their wage bill, and that could ruin the deal.
That gives Tottenham an opportunity to swoop in, but whether they can convince Rashford to move to North London remains to be seen.
