Marcus Rashford has rejected a huge £675k-a-week offer from the Saudi Pro League to leave Manchester United in January, according to reports.
Rashford’s days at Old Trafford appear to be numbered, recently admitting he is ready for a ‘new challenge’ after being dropped by Ruben Amorim.
United are open to offers for Rashford in the January transfer window and they have just received three from a trio of unnamed Saudi Arabian clubs.
All three sides were willing to double Rashford’s wages and pay the Englishman £35m-a-year, but the United forward has turned them down.
That’s according to widespread fresh reports on Thursday, with Rashford only thought to be willing to join a respected club in a competitive league.
Rashford’s desire to regain a place in the England team under Thomas Tuchel is also believed to be a factor in his decision to snub Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile, it has also been reported that Rashford will not consider any offers from clubs in Turkey, such as Fenerbahce or Galatasaray.
One team that has been touted to sign Rashford is Tottenham, with Ange Postecoglou hoping to improve his attacking options in January.
But The Athletic report that Spurs are not interested in Rashford, chiefly because they want to continue recruiting players aged 23 or younger.
Rashford hasn’t played in United’s last five games after he was brutally axed from Amorim’s squad for the Manchester derby last month.
He was left out of the squad entirely for four games in a row and was an unused substitute in the 2-0 defeat to Newcastle on Monday.
Rashford, who came through United’s academy, has played 426 matches for the Red Devils to date, registering 138 goals and 63 assists.
United will consider a loan move for Rashford in January if his new club pay a fee and cover the majority of his wages.
