That’s all just speculation and opinion, and has nothing to do with mathematics.
Marcus Rashford (out)

Yeah. Very much looks it, doesn't it?
This is what happens when you surround yourself with people who won't be honest with you.
Before pressing the button on that Henry Winter piece Rashford's camp should have been sure of a desirable escape route. They didn't believe they had to be. They thought as soon as word got out that their guy was available all the greats would come running.
I'm embarrassed for the kid, I genuinely am.
I hate Arsenal and still have a soft spot for Rashy.What?
Sell to any club willing to pay a reasonable fee and are willing to pay his entire wage.
I don’t want him anywhere near those Gooners.
The wages thing is more for our sake, if we get the numbers for the wages down the finances will look a lot healthier (especially if Casemiro leaves too). What people are saying is that although a fee of 20 or 30 million might not look much, the fact that you’re getting 300K a week off your wage bill is a factor for consideration when selling.
okay mate you're right, if someone gives him 250k a week for 5 years he's sorted
Man, there are some really aggy people on this forum at the moment
Do you see teams buying right now? No one really buys in January. Hence the reason teams are looking at loans.
Hate those new rules. Everyone is an accountant and every transfer thread like a never ending business meeting
Can you tell me how much Rashford actually earns per week, and how you came to these numbers, out of interest?
Most websites have his base salary at £300,000 per week.
It was also confirmed in the past that players wages would be reduced when United aren’t playing champions league football, sometimes by 25%.
Manchester United stars set for 25 per cent wage cut
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/f...tml?ito=native_share_article-nativemenubutton
On that basis, he could be earning as low as £225,000 per week base, which equates to £35,100,0000 over the remaining three years of his contract.
A five year contract would need to be £135,000 a week to match the total value (on a gross basis, anyway).
His salary may not have been reduced by 25%, as that’s just speculation. But I would say you should consider your own maths here, because I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t need a five year deal on £250,000 per week to see any financial upside.
Man, there are some really aggy people on this forum at the moment
you made a silly claim then doubled down and deflected instead of admitting the painfully obvious
now all you have left is to claim I was being mean to you when I was clearly taking the piss
Haha, like minded and all that
I just can’t see rashford passing up millions to play elsewhere.
That’s bollocks.
Literally 2 minutes after this post, an accountancy post appears.
Not sure why everyone so into the numbers.
I’m just gutted as watched a highlights of reel from when he was a bit younger and he had genuine desire and hunger, just gutted we can’t get that Marcus back. He just seems depressed all the time now
He has 3.5 years left. That's probably where you went wrong.
On top of that, he has to work an additional 1.5 years to earn the same money
and obviously no ones giving him 5 years at 135k, he's turned to shite
I don’t think it is a silly claim, and I think you were being quite facetious, to be honest.
Even if Rashford is on a full £300,000 per week, a five year deal would need to pay £180,000 to have the same remuneration overall.
And that’s before you consider the fact that’s he’s far more likely to earn bonuses and invectives at a club where he can actually play. It ignores the fact that if he sits on yeh contract at United, his chance of securing a good contract after that drop off dramatically too, compared to playing at another club more often, with a chance of earning more money in the future. It ignores any potential differences in the tax treatment of his earnings in the UK vs wherever he could end up playing.
I really don’t see why people feel the need to make such black-and-white statements about things where we have nowhere near enough information available. We don’t even really known what his current weekly wage is.
this is literally the precise reason I replied to your original point
lets move on, sorry for being a dick
You mocked me for suggesting it’s possible that it could be financially beneficial for Rashford to take a lower wage over a longer contract, on the basis that it could be beneficial to him financially. I don’t know what you based that on.this is literally the precise reason I replied to your original point
At 30m, it might just be a good deal..
He won’t be sold for £21million
If we negotiate £30-35 million off you pop mate
If we negotiate £30-35 million off you pop mate
you had to change the length of his contract to make it work and you still think you're right
he’s the booby prize.
Mate, I used an example to illustrate a point. Do you have access to his payslips so we can do a real forensic analysis? And where did £250k a week over five years come from?
It's not rocket surgery is it.
ExactlyArsenal sold Balogun for £25m and he was earning £35k a week at the time.
This shit isn't complicated. Getting £20m and rid of Rashford's wages this summer would be a fecking miracle for the club.
you used an example that was factually wrong
what am I supposed to do with that other than chuckle
Come one now, mate. It’s using hypothetical to make a point. Why on earth would it matter if I said three years or three and half years, when we are discussing hypotheticals and guesswork when it comes to his current salary and any potential new salary?
Nice weather, rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous, what's not to like? Make it happen!

Normally I'd be happy to let him go for 50 million, but for Arsenal I'm willing to close one eye and accept 75 million.
Yeah, his potential was exciting and seemed to be level headed local lad.
Sadly it didn‘t turned out as we thought.
Hope we manage to do better with acadamy players coming through to be better prepared with the crazy world of professional football.
It were different times and probably not possible anymore but I think SAF managed the finances or restricted access to the money. He was like a strict parent for the young talents
Just trying to think of realistic ways he could potentially leave the club. I’m also really gutted about how it’s turned out with Rashford. Looked at for a great career set the club.
Ye because I forgot you can go out and spend 50/60m in January.
We take Nwaneri and offer an additional 20m
I couldn't give 2 shits if Arsenal did get him. I'd prefer them to win the league over the scum every day of the week.
Who exactly is costing 50-60 million because it certainly isn’t Rashford
You’re missing the point mate. How many big transfers get done in January? Next to none. So most likely scenario is Rashford goes on loan with an obligation to buy.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers should buy him for 150 million considering the shitshow we had to endure in the last 12 years.
you used a hypothetical contract length? what for? His contract has 3.5 years left you can use the exact numbers.
I'm sorry but
Why not. Guess he does more good as a punter then as a striker at United.
Grim to think we'll still be paying him more than Amad and Mainoo combined per week to play for someone else.
