Major reunion: Mourinho interested in signing Rashford
Marcus Rashford's recent struggles at Manchester United have fueled rumors about a potential departure. Among the interested parties is José Mourinho, the player’s second professional coach during his early years in senior football.
Details: According to teamTALK, Mourinho, now managing Turkish club Fenerbahçe, is keeping a close eye on the 27-year-old forward’s situation. While the "Canaries" have not made a concrete approach, they are monitoring developments closely.
Rashford's salary and transfer fee pose significant challenges for the Turkish side. A loan deal with an option to buy would be their preferred route. The transfer could materialize as early as next month if Manchester United agrees to cover a portion of Rashford's wages.
Reminder: Reports have indicated that Rashford has informed Manchester United of his desire to leave the club. Under Mourinho's management, Rashford made 125 appearances, scoring 28 goals and providing 18 assists.
