Marcus Rashford may have the chance to reunite with his former Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag if recent rumors from Europe come together. Speculation about Rashford’s future at Old Trafford is growing intense after his surprising conversation with journalist Henry Winter, where the England forward revealed his wish to pursue a new challenge. It’s uncertain how things will unfold for the 27-year-old in January. There have certainly been many rumors circulating, and Rashford has turned down three offers from the lucrative Saudi Arabian market. He is believed to want to remain in Europe, especially in one of its top five leagues, to improve his chances of being recalled to the England team. AC Milan, Barcelona, Napoli, and PSG have been mentioned as possible interested clubs. There is believed to be ongoing interest from Borussia Dortmund, with the Bundesliga club reportedly considering Ten Hag as a potential new manager if they decide to replace Nuri Sahin. Ten Hag, who was dismissed by United in October after more than two years in charge, has been seen at recent Dortmund matches as a guest of club advisor Matthias Sammer, leading to speculation about him being a future head coach. However, Sky Germany reports that no official contact has been made yet. Nevertheless, as Dortmund faces difficulties at the moment, the idea that a change may be forthcoming continues to persist. Rashford and Ten Hag experienced a somewhat inconsistent working relationship at Old Trafford and elsewhere. While the club’s Academy graduate scored a career-high 30 goals in the 2022/2023 season, he couldn’t maintain that performance last season under Ten Hag, who also faced a few off-field issues. Additionally, Dortmund’s interest in a potential deal for Rashford is complicated by salary and other financial considerations. However, United maintains a communication line with the German club, which was last used a year ago when Jadon Sancho rejoined Dortmund on a half-season loan.
