Galatasaray plotting ambitious move with super agent for underwhelming Man Utd forward

Galatasaray are plotting an ambitious move for Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford ahead of the January transfer window.

It has been claimed that the Turkish giants have employed the services of Italian agent George Gardi to facilitate a move for Rashford.

Gardi brokered the deal that brought Mauro Icardi and Victor Osimhen to the club and is expected to repeat his magic with the United ace.

The Italian agent reportedly sounded out Galatasaray that he was confident of bringing Rashford to the club and has received their blessings to make the move happen.

Galatasaray are well stocked in attack, boasting of Icardi, Osimhen and Mitchy Batsuayi, but the injury to Icardi has decimated their frontline.

They have been linked with some strikers as a result of the Argentine striker’s injury with Rashford being the latest.

The England international is not in the best of form, scoring five goals in 19 games across all competitions this term and has come under huge criticism as a result.

Despite not hitting his best form yet, he is on the verge of equalling his last season’s tally of eight goals, which should offer a glimmer of hope regarding his future performance.

He has been touted to play a key role under Ruben Amorim, and it was not surprising to see the Portuguese gaffer hand him a start in his first match as Red Devils’ boss against Ipswich Town.

The 27-year-old scored the only goal as the Premier League newcomers battled the Red Devils to a 1-1 draw in the Premier League game contested at Portman Road last Sunday.

Rashford’s present deal expires in the summer of 2028, which means an exit would not come cheap for Galatasaray or any other suitor.

United are highly unlikely to sanction his exit in January but may change their stance in the summer after Amorim has had enough time to evaluate him and other players in the squad.
