Tottenham Hotspur have not given up yet on Marcus Rashford, with the Lilywhites one of three English clubs looking to bring the forward back to the Premier League.

Spurs Web has relayed several reports over recent weeks and days stating that Spurs are considering a shock move for Rashford as Barcelona hesitate to activate their purchase option.

In fact, it has been suggested that Man United and Barca are far apart in their valuations of the Tottenham target, which may open up an opportunity for the North London club to take advantage.

Over the last 48 hours, some sources have suggested that Rashford is not keen on a switch to Spurs, but it appears that the Lilywhites are not giving up on the forward.

Tottenham battling Aston Villa and Newcastle for Marcus Rashford

I News has become the latest outlet to back up Spurs’ interest in the 28-year-old, whose future remains up in the air.

The report reveals that Tottenham are keen to add Premier League experience to their squad and have identified Rashford as the right profile for their squad.

However, they may face competition for the forward, with Newcastle eyeing the Man United man as a possible replacement for Anthony Gordon, while Aston Villa are also exploring re-signing the player who they previously had on loan.

Additionally, the report adds that Bayern Munich are also assessing a possible approach for Rashford as they look to add another wide-forward to their squad.

Barcelona have not walked away from the Rashford deal yet

I News have made it clear that Barca have not decided to abandon a deal for the Man United man yet despite signing Gordon and pursuing a deal for Julian Alvarez.

Most key officials at the Catalan club would prefer to keep Rashford at the club, including manager Hansi Flick, sporting director Deco and president Joan Laporta.

The main sticking point between Barca and Man United is the asking price, which is why the England international’s future remains uncertain for now.
