Manchester United have reportedly been offered Ansu Fati in a mega Marcus Rashford swap deal. Reports in Spain suggest that Rashford could be set for a move to Barcelona. New Barca boss Hansi Flick is said to be willing to allow former wonderkid Fati to leave next month, paving the way for a player-exchange move.

What needs to be done in the transfer market in 2025 will be heavily influenced by the futures of Virgil van Dijk, Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold, whose current deals all expire at the end of this season. All three have received contract offers from the club, but who stays and who goes remains unclear.
