Red Devils leaders make a salary swap between Marcus Rashford and goalkeeper David de Gea.

MU offered De Gea a new contract with a significantly reduced salary, from 375,000 pounds/week to 200,000 pounds/week.

Up to now, the 32-year-old goalkeeper has not signed yet, giving rise to information that he will leave the Old Trafford team on a free transfer.

Sources within MU said that the club is quite comfortable with the current situation in goal. In case De Gea refuses to renew, the club will recruit Jordan Pickford or Andre Onana to replace him.

As for Rashford, the English striker himself is quite satisfied with his development under coach Ten Hag. Therefore, committing to the future with a new contract is only a matter of time.

Last season, Marcus Rashford was the Red Devils' number 1 scorer. The big boss at Old Trafford wants to turn him into the new symbol of the Manchester team.
