He added:
Rashford is expected to hit the ground running this season after an underwhelming five-goal 2021-22 campaign.
Red Devils interested in Mauro Icardi
Manchester United are interested in Mauro Icardi, according to TyC Sports via The Hard Tackle.
The Argentinean striker is surplus to requirements at PSG this summer and has been asked to search for a new club. United are among the parties interested in his services.
The Red Devils remain in the hunt for a new number nine due to the uncertain future of Cristiano Ronaldo.
The club are yet to sign a replacement for Edinson Cavani, who left this summer. Anthony Martial’s injury woes have also been a cause of concern for Ten Hag. Icardi could be the answer, and a loan move with an option to buy could be on the cards.
