Everton Target Manchester United Forward Marcus Rashford Ahead of Winter Window

The future of 28-year-old Marcus Rashford at Old Trafford has once again been cast into doubt as Everton have entered the race to secure his signature from Manchester United. According to Transfers.com, the two Premier League clubs have already held initial talks regarding a potential move for the England international in the upcoming winter transfer window, evaluating options for both a permanent transfer and a loan deal.

Everton's board is firmly committed to exploring the financial feasibility of the transfer, which heavily depends on Manchester United's wage demands and structural preferences. Rashford has struggled for regular action this season, managing just 502 minutes across eight appearances without a goal or an assist. With his role diminishing under Michael Carrick and United looking to slash their wage bill to fund future arrivals, a January departure could offer the forward a fresh start as Everton position him to spearhead their attacking project.
