Antonio Cassano has issued a stark assessment of Marcus Rashford’s potential move to Serie A, putting a dent in the hopes of Juventus and AC Milan, who have reportedly shown interest in the Manchester United forward.
Speaking to Viva el Futbol, Cassano commented on Rashford’s prospective exit from Old Trafford, where contract talks have been stalling.
“In Italy, they cannot afford him,” Cassano remarked, highlighting the financial challenge Italian clubs might face in securing the services of the England international.
His comments come amid growing speculation that Rashford could leave Manchester, with both Juve and Milan reported to be monitoring the situation closely.
Rashford’s contract with United appears to be a stumbling block for the Italian clubs, as the Premier League’s financial muscle dwarfs many Serie A teams.
With his current deal set to expire soon, Rashford’s future hangs in the balance, with both clubs and fans closely following every twist in the transfer saga.
