TRENDING RUMORS

- Marcus Rashford is on record saying he wants to stay at Barcelona, so he will be happy to hear the club reportedly want the same. Barça have a €30m clause to make the move permanent when his loan deal expires this summer, and according to The Athletic, there is interest in keeping him around. "Oh yeah, for sure," Rashford told ESPN in October when asked if he wanted to remain at the Camp Nou. "I'm enjoying this football club and I think for anybody who loves football, Barcelona is one of the key clubs in the history of the game."

- Rashford might not be the only person to leave Old Trafford this summer. United players fear that Bruno Fernandes has had enough of the problems being endured at the club and will leave in the summer, according to The Sun. The 31-year-old could look for a fresh start following the World Cup after he admitted that former manager Ruben Amorim had persuaded him to stay last summer following a £100m offer from Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal. Fernandes has claimed that he won't make a decision regarding his future until after the World Cup.

- USMNT and Norwich City strike Josh Sargent made himself unavailable for Sunday's FA Cup third-round victory over Walsall, manager Philippe Clement said. Sargent, who has been linked with Toronto FC, has eight goals in 24 appearances for second-tier Norwich this season. Clement said Sargent texted him Saturday night to inform him of his unavailability.

- Galatasaray have opened talks to sign Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva as a free agent in the summer, as reported by Nicolo Schira. If the 31-year-old is to join, City teammate Ilkay Gündogan could play a key role in making it happen, as he is one of Silva's best friends. Gundogan has actually already spoken positively to the Portugal international about Galatasaray's project.

- After the news that Georgia Stanway will be leaving Bayern Munich when her contract expires this summer, Sky Sports has suggested that Arsenal are interested in the midfielder. Early talks have already taken place between the club and player, with the 27-year-old able to sign a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs this month, but there will be further competition for the England international from other clubs in the Women's Super League.
