Bayern Munich are reportedly keen on signing Man United forward Marcus Rashford, but his wages remain a major sticking point.

With Barcelona still yet to make a decision on whether they will activate the £26 million option to buy included in their loan deal with Man United, Rashford, 28, is weighing his options.

The LaLiga champions have confirmed the signing of Anthony Gordon from Newcastle, making Rashford’s stay unlikely.

According to Journalist Christian Falk, Bayern are interested in signing Rashford and are willing to match Man Unted’s asking price.

Rashford’s wages are the major issue, however, with the player earning a reported £300,000 per-week, he would have to take a major pay cut.
