Aston Villa’s acquisition of Marcus Rashford, Manchester United, and Mathys Tel of Bayern Munich have all seen notable changes as the January transfer season draws to a close.
The move of Mathys Tel to Manchester United Reaches a Barrier
There have been major setbacks in Manchester United’s attempts to acquire French forward Mathys Tel, 19, from Bayern Munich. Tel has stated that he would like to join the Red Devils, but talks have halted mostly because of money issues.
Manchester United is reluctant to meet the €60 million valuation that Bayern Munich has set for Tel. Although Tel has expressed hesitancy to go to North London, Tottenham Hotspur has already submitted a proposal that matches Bayern’s asking price. Even though no official agreement has been struck, Arsenal has also joined the battle and begun contacting with Tel’s representatives.
Tel’s move to Old Trafford seems less and less feasible given the standoff and the approaching transfer deadline. The possible deal is made even more difficult by Bayern Munich’s previous rejection of a loan offer from Manchester United.
Aston Villa Finalizes Loan Deal for Marcus Rashford
Marcus Rashford, a forward for Manchester United, is about to sign a loan deal with Aston Villa in a related development. Villa has the option to make the transfer permanent during the summer transfer window as part of the agreement, which is scheduled to expire at the end of the current campaign.
At least 75% of Rashford’s £350,000 weekly salary will be paid by Aston Villa, with the possibility of a 90% contribution depending on performance-related incentives. If Villa decides to permanently sign Rashford, the deal also includes a future transfer price of about £40 million.
Following a protracted period of little playing time under Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim, who has openly criticized the player’s training efforts, Rashford left the team. Rashford has the chance to revitalize his career and get regular first-team experience with the transfer to Villa Park.
Conclusion
Manchester United is having trouble expanding its offensive options as the transfer season closes, and the Mathys Tel deal is still up in the air. On the other hand, Aston Villa has made a bold move to bolster their offensive squad by signing Marcus Rashford, indicating their goals for the rest of the year.
