Rashford, who has scored five goals in 23 appearances for United this term, has struggled for form in recent months and a lot of debate has been created about his future. He is out-of-contract at Old Trafford in the summer of 2023, but the club has the option of an additional year.

"Liverpool haven't been in for Bowen and he hasn't said he wants to leave. As far as I know they haven't made an enquiry. He's a good player but when you pick players out of the air
