Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos cannot pass up the opportunity to take a closer look at Marcus Rashford\u2019s England teammate as a key target for Manchester United.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Marcus Rashford is on loan at Barcelona<\/a> and the 28-year-old Manchester United<\/a> talent\u2019s future at Old Trafford<\/a> is all but over under manager Ruben Amorim<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old Barcelona summer signing spent the second half of last season out on loan at Aston Villa and was able to turn around his England career at Villa Park.<\/p>\n

Marcus Rashford<\/a> has since climbed back into the Three Lions\u2019 fold under Thomas Tuchel<\/a> and the ex-Aston Villa star is in the November international squad as well.<\/p>\n

Thomas Tuchel announced his England side for the international break on Friday, with Rashford also being the only United player picked for the 25-man squad.<\/p>\n

According to England\u2019s official website<\/a>, Crystal Palace star Adam Wharton<\/a> has been named in Thomas Tuchel\u2019s Three Lions squad for the November international break.<\/p>\n

United have been linked with Wharton<\/a> in the past and the 21-year-old Crystal Palace midfielder could be a top target for the Red Devils in the 2026 summer window.<\/p>\n

Ruben Amorim was able to receive a boost in the summer with five new signings, including the likes of Bryan Mbeumo<\/a>, Senne Lammens<\/a> and Matheus Cunha<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, the 40-year-old United manager<\/a> was unable to land a midfielder and the Red Devils have looked vulnerable with the two-man midfield pivot this season.<\/p>\n

Bruno Fernandes<\/a> dropped into a deeper role in the 2025-26 season and Amorim\u2019s preferred pick alongside the 31-year-old United captain<\/a> has been Casemiro<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, the Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro midfield partnership has yielded mixed results at times and the latter of the two is out of contract with United next summer.<\/p>\n

Adam Wharton\u2019s Man Utd \u2018audition\u2019 will continue after the November international break with England<\/strong><\/p>\n

England will play Serbia and Albania in their World Cup qualifiers and Three Lions boss Tuchel is expected to heavily rotate his options during the two matches.<\/p>\n

The Three Lions have already secured qualification to the 2026 World Cup and the remaining two matches for England in 2025 could allow Tuchel to experiment.<\/p>\n

United-linked Adam Wharton<\/a> could secure minutes for England against Serbia and Albania and the Red Devils could continue to profile the midfielder for Amorim.<\/p>\n

The Eagles star\u2019s \u2018audition\u2019 for United would continue after the international break and before the end of November, with Crystal Palace set to host the Red Devils.<\/p>\n

United will travel to Selhurst Park on 30th November and Wharton\u2019s performances for both England and Palace in November could leave a lasting impression.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sir Jim Ratcliffe and Ineos cannot pass up the opportunity to take a closer look at Marcus Rashford\u2019s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":556331,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5008],"tags":[9877,748,393,4884,103,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-556330","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-england","8":"tag-adam-wharton","9":"tag-britain","10":"tag-england","11":"tag-great-britain","12":"tag-marcus-rashford","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115511687446948663","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/556330","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=556330"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/556330\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/556331"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=556330"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=556330"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=556330"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
