PSG openly discuss their intent to sign ‘amazing’ Rashford

Paris Saint-Germain have discussed their interest in signing Marcus Rashford from Manchester United as the forward nears the end of his deal at Old Trafford.

Rashford is out of contract at Manchester United at the end of the current campaign, though the Red Devils do have the option to extend his deal for a further season.

 

The 25-year-old has returned to form this season and has impressed for England at the World Cup, scoring three goals during the Three Lions’ run to the quarter-finals.

PSG are understood to be long-term admirers of Rashford and have previously held talks with the player’s representatives over the prospect of a transfer to Ligue 1.

The French champion’s president, Nasser al-Khelaifi, has now opened up on the club’s interest in a potential deal.

“He’s another player that is really amazing,” Khelaifi told Sky Sports News. “And for free? To have Rashford for free, every club would run after him, definitely.

”We’re not hiding it, we spoke before and [there was] interest, but the moment was not a good moment for both sides. Maybe, summer, why not?

“Today if he’s a free agent of course we can talk to him directly, but we are not going to talk to him now. Let him focus on the World Cup. Then after, in January hopefully, if we’re interested we will talk to him.”
