Real Madrid reportedly preparing £100m move for Manchester United star Marcus Rashford

Real Madrid are preparing a £100million summer move for Marcus Rashford, according to reports.

The Manchester United striker has just 18 months left on his Old Trafford deal, and talks over a new contract have been shelved until the end of the season.

His United team-mate Anthony Martial has signed a new five-year deal with the club, but Rashford is in no rush to put pen-to-paper on fresh terms.

The Sun claim that Rashford’s willingness to wait to sign a new deal has encouraged Real into believing they can land the versatile forward.

The England international, 21, earns £60,000-a-week and United are prepared to triple his wages to keep him.

Despite Real being able to offer £250,000-a-week, it is believed that Rashford is intent on staying at Old Trafford.

The England international has thrived in a central attacking role under interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, scoring five goals in seven starts.

His form has forced Romelu Lukaku, a favourite under former manager Jose Mourinho, to settle for a place on the bench.

Rashford will be looking to add to his goal tally when United travel to Leicester on Sunday.
