Transfer News: West Ham 'make contact with unhappy Man United forward'

Red Devils ace wants to join Hammers

Man Utd train AWB after failed Chelsea bid

West Ham have made contact with Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford over a potential transfer, according to reports. The 25-year-old is said to be unhappy at Old Trafford and is keen to leave the club this summer.

Rashford has fallen down the pecking order at United following the arrival of Jadon Sancho and Cristiano Ronaldo. He has made just 13 Premier League starts this season and has scored only four goals.

West Ham are in the market for a new striker and see Rashford as a potential target. The Hammers have been linked with a move for Chelsea forward Armando Broja, but they could now switch their attention to Rashford.

Rashford would be a good addition to the West Ham squad. He is a versatile forward who can play on the wing or through the middle. He is also a good goalscorer and has a good eye for a pass.

However, United are reluctant to sell Rashford and will demand a high price for him. West Ham may have to pay around £50 million to sign the England international.

Meanwhile, United have been training defender Aaron Wan-Bissaka after their failed bid to sign Chelsea right-back Reece James. The Red Devils were keen to sign James this summer, but Chelsea were unwilling to sell the 22-year-old.

United have now turned their attention to Wan-Bissaka, who has been out of favor at Old Trafford this season. The 24-year-old has made just 12 Premier League starts this season and has been linked with a move away from the club.

United manager Erik ten Hag is said to be a big fan of Wan-Bissaka and is keen to give him a chance to impress. The Dutchman is hopeful that Wan-Bissaka can rediscover his form and become a key player for United.
