Marcus Rashford learns Bayern Munich transfer decision as Man Utd star awaits 'dream' move

Bayern Munich are not among the clubs weighing up a move for Manchester United academy product Marcus Rashford this summer, despite the forward impressing during his loan spell at Barcelona . The England star has spent the campaign in La Liga with Hansi Flick's side, who hold an option-to-buy the 28 year old this summer. The fee is in the region of £26million, however Barca are said to favour taking Rashford on loan for a further season in order to secure him for a reduced fee in the summer of 2027. His current Old Trafford deal runs until 2028, meaning he would be entering the final year of his contract by the end of next season. His outstanding form for the Catalan club, coupled with their apparent reluctance to push through a permanent deal this summer, has seen Rashford linked with several top sides. Tottenham Hotspur and Bayern are amongst those mentioned in recent weeks, but BILD journalist Christian Falk insists the German giants have no interest. FOLLOW OUR MAN UTD FB PAGE! Latest United news and more on our dedicated Facebook page He states Bayern are focused on landing Anthony Gordon, with his agent touching down in Germany earlier this week to thrash out a potential switch to the Bundesliga. Newcastle have set a reported asking price of £80m for Gordon, with Bayern seeking to strike a deal closer to £60m. Rashford would have represented a far more economical option and Vincent Kompany's side have alternative targets beyond Gordon, but the United forward isn't among them. The Barcelona loanee has also made his intentions crystal clear that his ambition is to secure a permanent 'dream' switch to the Nou Camp this summer. Speaking to Sport earlier this season, Rashford said: "I'm settling in really well at the club and in the city. From the moment I arrived, I felt very welcomed. "For me, the reason I'm here is to help the team win trophies; last season was fantastic, but life moves very fast, things change, and the goal is to repeat those successes. I'm totally focused on that. "Everything has been fantastic with the staff and my teammates; I have no complaints. Of course, what I want is to stay at Barca. It's the ultimate goal, but it's not the reason I'm training hard and giving my all. "The purpose is to win. Barca is a huge, fantastic club, built to win titles. There is pressure here, but it's not negative pressure; it's the kind you crave as a player, the kind I want and have always wanted as a footballer. "I can't be in a place where there aren't high expectations; for me, it's harder to stay motivated and give my best at a club where the demands aren't at their peak. "I'm in the perfect place and environment to continue my journey as a footballer, so I'm just trying to give my best every day and help the team win. We'll see what happens next summer."
