EXCLUSIVE: Rashford a shock transfer target for Inter
Marcus Rashford has emerged as a target for Inter Milan - as they look to bounce back from their Champions League final horror show.
The Manchester United forward, 27, spent the second half of the season on loan at Aston Villa, with his red-hot form securing him a place back in the England squad.
ut Villa, who narrowly missed out on a Champions League spot for 2025-26, are unlikely to make a permanent move for Rashford due to the player’s sky-high wages.
Unai Emery and Co are now firmly focused on other targets and hope to keep hold of Ollie Watkins, who has been linked with an exit from Villa Park.
Sources close to Rashford told SunSport he doesn’t see a future at Old Trafford under Ruben Amorim.
And that means Rashford is frantically searching for a new club, which has put Inter Milan on red-alert.
Inter 'make contact with Hojlund's camp'
Rasmus Hojlund could be set for a return to Italy this summer.
The Danish striker arrived in Manchester from Atalanta in 2023 for a mammoth £72m fee.
Since joining the Premier League giants, he has scored 26 goals in 95 games.
Last season was one to forget for Hojlund and his employers.
The Dane only scored four Premier League goals in 32 matches.
His future at Old Trafford is said to be up in the air, and Inter Milan are reportedly keen on a move for the striker.
The Italians have made contact with the forward's camp and talks have started between the two.
Hojlund is one of Inter's top attacking targets this summer.
A look at Mbeumo
Bryan Mbeumo has been one of Brentford's key players during the Bees' time in the Premier League.
Last season, he edged Yoane Wissa as the club's top goalscorer, which was the first time he topped the chart for the London club.
Only Mohamed Salah and Alexander Isak had more goal involvements than Mbeumo in the Prem last season.
Mbeumo ‘chooses Man Utd'
Bryan Mbeumo has decided to join Manchester United over Arsenal, according to reports.
The winger has a year left on his Brentford contract and is expected to leave the club this summer.
Mbeumo has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs.
But he has chosen United and the Red Devils are set to open talks with the Bees over his transfer, report .
Rival switch?
James McAtee has reportedly been left out of Manchester City’s Club World Cup squad amid links with rivals Manchester United.
Shock reports claim McAtee, 22, has emerged as a target for the Red Devils this summer.
The playmaker has been at City since 2013, rising up through the academy before taking in a double loan spell at Sheffield United.
This season saw McAtee emerge as a rotation player under Guardiola, with the ace netting seven goals in 27 outings.
However, City have numerous attacking options both in midfield and out wide.
Guardiola is also said to be plotting swoops for the likes of Lyon’s Rayan Cherki and Nottingham Forest’s Morgan Gibbs-White.
And that could see McAtee become available for a transfer away from the Etihad, with United thought to be circling.
Now, speculation regarding his City future has heated up after McAtee was left out of the squad for the Club World Cup.
Fernandes latest
Man Utd are reportedly still waiting for Bruno Fernandes' decision on his future amid links to Al-Hilal.
The Saudi Arabian side are willing to make the Portuguese playmaker one of the best-paid players in the world and are looking to pay the Red Devils a mammoth fee of £100m for his services.
Fernandes is yet to decide on what his future holds and will speak with his family before coming to a conclusion.
The United skipper's agent, Miguel Pinho, has been in Riyadh for talks with senior Al-Hilal executives.

The Red Devils have already played twice since the season finished.
Both performances on their post-season tour of Asia pretty much summed up United's season, losing 1-0 to ASEAN All Stars and then coming from behind to beat Hong Kong 3-1.

30 July v Bournemouth (Chicago; Premier League Summer Series)
3 August v Everton (Atlanta; Premier League Summer Series)
9 August v Fiorentina (H)Jur Kidding?
Man Utd should axe Ruben Amorim and bring in JURGEN KLOPP, according to Martin Keown.
The Red Devils boss, 40, is under pressure following a dismal campaign in which United finished 15th in the Premier League and scored just 44 goals.
Losing the Europa League final stole any chance of a bright finish to the season, with there to be no European football to speak of at Old Trafford in 2025-26.
And former Arsenal star Keown, 58, a former fierce rival of Man Utd following his infamous clash with Ruud van Nistelrooy in 2003, has suggested Liverpool legend Klopp to turn things around at his former foes.
Speaking on , Keown said: "After so many losses, I’m still concerned that maybe this isn’t the right manager for Manchester United.
"It’s going to be a very interesting start to next season for them.
"But they could do a lot worse than go and get Jurgen Klopp to manage their football club.
"I’m not trying to sensationalise. I believe he could do an incredible job there...
"And I believe they need somebody with more experience than the current manager."
When asked to confirm his thought by his co-pundits, Keown snapped: "Why not? He’s done a rebuilding job before."
Napoli lead Garnacho chase
Recently crowned Italian champions, Napoli, are reportedly leading the race to sign Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho.
Ruben Amorim has told the Argentine that he is free to leave the club this summer.
Chelsea are said to be interested in a move for Garnacho too, but United may prefer to sell to Napoli.
Utd eye Fernandes replacement
Manchester United are eyeing up a move for Sporting midfielder Pedro Goncalves, should skipper Bruno Fernandes depart to Al-Hilal.
The Red Devils captain has been linked with a huge £80m move to Saudi Arabia this summer.
Man Utd boss Ruben Amorim worked with Goncalves during his time at Sporting.
Man Utd in shock three-way Mitrovic transfer battle
Man Utd are considering a shock swoop for Aleksandar Mitrovic after missing out on Liam Delap, according to reports.
The endured a horrific season in 2024-25, managing just 44 Premier League goals as they finished a barely-believable 15th.
Rasmus Hojlund and Joshua Zirkzee are both rumoured to be on the chopping block after dismal campaigns.
Ipswich's breakout star Delap, 22, was the club's No1 striker target, but the former Manchester City academy star is .
And while United aren't in a position to sign anyone without first selling, Old Trafford chiefs are contemplating a swoop for ex- striker , according to .
A boost for Utd
Randal Kolo Muani is reportedly ready to quit PSG this summer.
The French striker has not enjoyed the success he thought he would after leaving Germany for France, and looks to make his loan away from the club permanent.
He is a target of Man Utd, who could swoop again.
Utd will face stiff competition from Juventus, and other clubs in Serie A, but could be one they go in hard for, as PSG want to offload, and the player wants to leave.
The price is right
Manchester United have LOWERED their asking price of Alejandro Garnacho, according to reports.
Napoli and Chelsea are currently interested in bringing in the Argentine winger from Old Trafford.
Utd have slashed £10 million off their asking price, in an attempt to get sides to bid for their winger.
Reportedly, Garnacho has already said his preference is Chelsea, however Scott McTominay has already left the club to join Napoli, and has been a revelation for the side.
Utd to miss out on a target
Man Utd had identified Wolves left back Rayan Ait-Nouri as a target in the January window.
According to reports, Amorim was eager to bring the versatile defender to Old Trafford, with his ability to play in a back four or five making him desirable for Amorim's system.
However, United look like they will miss out to Man City, as they close in on a deal for him.
Ait-Nouri, along with Rayan Cherki, both look set to join City over Utd.
Amorim may be able to sleep easier with this one, as the club had not explored a deal for Ait-Nouri since January, meaning their interest may have cooled.
Chelsea made up their mind on Sancho?
The Blues loaned Sancho from Man Utd this season, but after a fast start, he failed to live up to the hype he once had at Borussia Dortmund.
The Blues are exploring a deal for current Dortmund star Jamie Gittens, indicating that Sancho may not be going back to Stamford Bridge.
The deal has an obligation to buy if Chelsea finished above 14th, which they did, but earlier in the season, it was revealed they had a get out clause, for around £5 million, which meant they would not have to sign Sancho.
Funnily enough, the deal will end up costing Chelsea only £1.5 million, as Utd had to pay the Blues around £3.5 million for reaching the Europa League final as part of Mason Mount's transfer deal.
A goal in the Conference League final may have swayed Chelsea, however, as the Blues could sign Sancho alongside Gittens, rather than instead of him.
Gyokeres NOT on Barca wishlist
Despite interest from the Middle East in Robert Lewandowski, Barcelona sporting director Deco said they are not looking for a new striker amid links with Viktor Gyokeres.
Portuguese tabloid A Bola does cite that the Sporting star is still wanted by Arsenal and Manchester United.

Fernandes is currently deliberating with his family. A key factor in whether Fernandes agrees will be if the move is also right for his family. Hilal want a final answer by Friday.
Rival talks
Manchester City have opted against including James McAtee in their squad for the Club World Cup which could open the door for the 22-year-old to move to Manchester United, the Mirror reports.
McAtee has been a rotational player for the Eithad side this season with the attacking midfielder looking at his options after the England Under-21 European Championship.
