Man Utd’s Potential Marcus Rashford Replacement After Meeting with ‘Sir Jim Ratcliffe’
Rashford committed his long-term future to United last summer after penning a new contract following a successful season, with 30 goals and 10 assists in all competitions. The 71-year-old businessman, Ratcliffe, is now actively seeking players to improve the club’s performance and has enlisted the help of Mendes, who represents high-profile players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Bernardo Silva, and Darwin Nunez. One of Mendes’ clients, Leao, is being considered by Ratcliffe due to his potential qualities.
Leao made an impact at Milan after joining them from Lille in 2019, with 56 goals and 49 assists in 205 appearances. His performances earned him a spot on the Ballon d’Or shortlist in 2022 and saw him scoring two goals at the 2022 World Cup. Known for his pace and dribbling skills, Leao has become a significant threat in front of goal, winning the Serie A title in 2022 and gaining experience in big games.
As he enters his prime, Leao could be the player United needs to improve their attacking prowess. While his potential acquisition might cost around £100 million, his impact could be invaluable to the team. Overall, Ratcliffe seems determined to invest in players who could elevate the club’s performance.
