Chelsea is interested in signing Marcus Rashford from Manchester United next summer.
The Red Devils have the option to extend his contract for another year, but they may prefer to give him a long-term contract rather than risk losing him for free in 2024.
The new owners of Chelsea, according to Repubblica (via The Express), are ready to pounce if the Red Devils fail to persuade Rashford to stay at Old Trafford.
In his 210 Premier League appearances for United, the England international has 62 goals and 42 assists.
Chelsea sold Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner this summer and signed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on the final day of the transfer window.
The former Arsenal striker is a short-term solution at the age of 33.
Todd Boehly may see Rashford as a long-term solution for the London club, given his versatility as a winger or central striker.
According to the same report, Diego Simeone admires the 24-year-old and wants him to join Atletico Madrid.
