Manchester United are reportedly still open to offers for Marcus Rashford despite the forward’s unwillingness to move to the Saudi Pro League.
Although Rashford, an England attacker, has fallen off the ranks at Old Trafford, head coach Ruben Amorim has not ruled out the 27-year-old’s full reintegration after restoring him to the matchday squad against Newcastle.
Despite saying he was ready for a new challenge, the player, whose contract is set to expire in 2028, may yet have a future with the Premier League giants.
According to The Mirror, the initial proposals seem to have come from Saudi Arabia, where Rashford is reportedly receiving contract offers that could double his salary, which is presently over £300,000 per week, to earn over £35 million annually. He is reportedly not planning to relocate to the Gulf State, though.

For their part, United are thought to be fully aware of the importance of the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules.
This might influence how they react to any interest in their academy graduate in January—that is, if more offers are received.
The Mail claims that the Red Devils are still considering a permanent Rashford departure while maintaining PSR compliance.
If prospective suitors are willing to pay a loan fee and cover the majority of the forward’s not small wages, they might also approve a loan exit for him.
Jadon Sancho is a perfect example of a high earner who United have previously approved loans for. The winger spent the previous season at Borussia Dortmund before going on loan to Chelsea for the current campaign. A permanent move to the London club is expected in the summer.
