Marcus Rashford has emerged as one of the most important players at Manchester United under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. At this point of time, he is a regular in the Red Devils’ starting XI and it feels unlikely that he will leave Old Trafford anytime soon in the near future. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has scored 21 goals and provided 15 assists in 56 appearances across all competitions this season.
But as we all know, things can change very quickly in football. And it is very possible that he could end up somewhere else in the future.
Rashford himself refused to rule out a move abroad one day and he even named two clubs that he is a big fan of.
As reported by The Guardian, when asked whether he would like to play abroad, he said:
"“ I would never say no.”"
Rashford was also asked about his ideal club and he said:
"“Other than United? I’m a big fan of Real Madrid and Barcelona, because they’ve always had great players and played attractive football.”"

Could Rashford end up leaving Manchester United one day?
Rashford has established himself as one of the most reliable goalscorers at the club and his stats certainly back up his importance to this team. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he has scored 88 goals and provided 56 assists through the course of his career with the Manchester United senior team.
Those are brilliant numbers for any player, and especially one who is just 23 years of age and is only going to get better moving forward.
It is hard to believe that Rashford is still just 23 years old. It feels like he has been a part of this team for a long time and in fact, he has been. The Englishman made his debut for the Red Devils back in 2016 and has been a part of the first-team picture ever since.
Thus, the club’s fans will be hoping that he remains at the Theatre of Dreams for the foreseeable future.
