Marcus Rashford has attracted interest from Paris Saint-Germain; Manchester United forward has one year remaining on his Old Trafford contract but United have the option of extending it by a further year; PSG boss Christophe Galtier admits he wants new striker
Paris Saint-Germain are looking to sign a forward this month but at this stage they are unlikely to follow up their initial interest in Marcus Rashford.
Manchester United are relaxed about the situation because Rashford is committed to the club and he effectively has two years left on his contract - one year plus an option for another year.
Rashford's representatives are believed to have held talks with PSG last week.
PSG have already signed players such as Renato Sanches, Vitinha and Hugo Ekitike this summer. They are in talks to sign Fabian Ruiz from Napoli and any more arrivals are likely to depend on more players leaving the club.
PSG have declined to comment on the reports in France this evening linking them with a move for Rashford.
"The club is working very hard. I repeat again that I am in direct contact with Luis Campos [PSG's football advisor] on this and that he is in direct contact with the management and our president.
"You mustn't make mistakes, you mustn't do anything, and then there are things that can be done and things that can't. Will this player make it? We have no guarantee on that.
"I know that the club will not take and pile up a player, it must be a real added value and the club is working in this direction.
"But whether by the end of the transfer window an offensive player will arrive I cannot confirm, but the club is working hard on this position."
'Rashford a long-term target for PSG'
Sky Sports News chief reporter Kaveh Solhekol:
"The feeling is that PSG won't be signing any more players unless they can sell. Quite a few deals would need to fall into place for that to happen.
"There was some initial interest in Marcus Rashford, but we're being told that they won't be following that up.
