Barcelona eye a move for Rashford
Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is a potential transfer target for Barcelona.
The 24-year-old Englishman has endured a tough season. Injuries have limited his impact, forcing him to settle for five goals in 30 appearances across all competitions. His contract ends in 2023. Despite having the option to extend for another year, both player and club are open to a departure.
Barcelona, for one, maybe interested. The La Liga giants appreciate Rashford’s potential and versatility. But their financial problems could make a deal difficult. [Diario Sport – in Spanish]

Bale is in talks for an MLS move
Real Madrid forward Gareth Bale has resumed talks over a free transfer to MLS side DC United after a long pause.
The 32-year-old Welshman will leave Real Madrid at the end of his contract this summer. Despite talks with DC United initially breaking down, they’re back on the table. The MLS club is prepared to pay him more than what Wayne Rooney got in 2018. [Washington Post]
Lukaku to join AC Milan?
AC Milan could offer Romelu Lukaku an ‘escape route’ from his Chelsea nightmare.
The 28-year-old striker hasn’t scored a Premier League or Champions League goal in 2022. He has lost favor under Blues boss Thomas Tuchel and could be on his way out in the summer.
Due to Lukaku’s past record at local rivals Inter, AC Milan are interested in a deal. But the sheer cost of one complicates things, given the player’s £325,000-a-week wages and the transfer fee. [Goal]
