Fenerbahçe will make an attempt to sign Manchester United‘s Marcus Rashford on Friday.
Earlier this week, the Istanbul club qualified for the Champions League group stage, after overcoming Lyon.
The Yellow Canaries want to further strengthen their attack and have identified the Manchester United player as the target.
Fenerbahçe’s plan for Manchester United man
On Thursday, Sport Witness covered a report from Turkey explaining that Fenerbahçe head of football Cihan Kamer would travel to England to hold talks with the Red Devils after the Champions League draw.
There was no mention of a price or the formula that the Turkish club are looking at to sign the 28-year-old.
Fotomaç picks up on that and adds director Oğuz Çetin has joined Kamer for the trip to the UK.
The duo will sit down for talks with Manchester United for Marcus Rashford. Their aim is to sign him on a permanent transfer.
Manchester United have decision to make
The newspaper states Fenerbahçe will send a €25m offer to Manchester United today for the England international.
Cihan Kamer and Oğuz Çetin are likely to present it during their talks with the Premier League side. The officials may also hold talks with the player while in England.
Marcus Rashford spent the last 18 months out on loan at Aston Villa and Barcelona, who didn’t exercise their €30m purchase clause.
Therefore, he returned to Old Trafford this summer. Last weekend, he came off the bench in the 2-0 defeat to Hull City to make his first appearance for the Red Devils since 2024.
Fotomaç report Michael Carrick’s side are open to selling him and Fenerbahçe’s aim is to finalise the operation this weekend. If there’s no agreement, the latter will submit a new offer of loan with an obligation to buy [probably with better conditions].
Meanwhile, Fiorentina have also made a loan offer for Joshua Zirkzee. If Fenerbahçe table the €25m bid for Rashford, the Red Devils have to decide on these two players’ futures.
