Manchester United intends to sell Marcus Rashford this summer

Summary

Manchester United plans to sell Marcus Rashford despite Michael Carrick's interest in retaining the forward. Rashford's substantial salary of £325,000 per week, coupled with underperformance, has led the club to consider moving him to reduce financial liabilities. The club's broader strategy under co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe emphasizes driving down wage bills. United is exploring alternatives like West Ham’s Crysencio Summerville, whose lower overall cost is appealing compared to retaining Rashford.
