Rashford Expected to Stay at Manchester United

Published 28 August 2026

Marcus Rashford is expected to remain at Manchester United beyond the summer transfer deadline, despite reported interest from Arsenal and Barcelona. The 28-year-old forward, who spent last season on loan at Barcelona, has reintegrated into the United squad and appears focused on his future at Old Trafford. The transfer window closes on Tuesday, September 1, and while Arsenal have been exploring options to strengthen their left wing following Gabriel Martinelli's move to Al-Hilal, a deal for Rashford is considered highly unlikely. Sources indicate that Rashford has no desire to leave United for a Premier League rival, with only a move abroad previously of interest.
