Newcastle Eyeing Deal to Sign Man Utd Outcast Marcus Rashford

Published

Newcastle United are eyeing a surprise move to sign Man Utd star Marcus Rashford this summer as a replacement for Anthony Gordon, according to iNews.

The Magpies are planning a major squad rebuild this summer after a poor campaign in the Premier League saw them finish 12th, missing out on European football entirely, and now forced to sell players to raise funds.

Gordon was the first to move on, joining Barcelona in a £70m deal, and now Eddie Howe is scouring the market to find a replacement and is looking at a familiar face.

Newcastle Eyeing Rashford Move

Rashford, who has been described as ‘frightening’ by Ollie Watkins, spent last season at Barcelona on loan and enjoyed a fine campaign, scoring 14 goals and registering 11 assists in all competitions as they won the Spanish league title.

But while the England star had an option in his deal to make it permanent, they are yet to trigger it, and have instead prioritisted deals for other forwards, with Gordon already arriving and a bid made for Atletico Madrid star Julian Alvarez.

That has sparked major question marks over Rashford’s future, and Newcastle are ready to make a move to bring him to St James’ Park in an ironic twist.

Man Utd are desperate to get his £325,000-a-week wages off their books, and despite Newcastle having a different transfer policy, it’s understood that they could look to bring the 28-year-old in as a direct replacement for Gordon.

A season-long loan move away has not been ruled out, with no offers on the table, although the Red Devils are expected to push for a permanent move instead.

Rashford to Newcastle Would Be Interesting Deal

Newcastle have made a habit of signing younger players who are ready to step up and explode at a higher level, while having room to improve. They did it with Gordon, Alexander Isak, Sandro Tonali, Bruno Guimaraes, and more in recent years.

But a deal for a player like Rashford, who has incredible experience at the highest level and is still performing to a very high standard, isn’t one that comes around every day, and the Magpies would be crazy not to consider it at least.

Whether he’s open to it or not is yet to be known, but Howe would love his direct running, finishing and skill set as part of his squad, and this is one to watch as the summer goes on.

Net Worth of Every Player in Squad

How much money do England’s footballers have? That’s a question likely to be on the lips of many football fans as they watch the 2026 World Cup at home this summer.

While we know the weekly wages of the players in Thomas Tuchel’s 26-man squad, the exact net worth of these household names is a little harder to find.

However, The Sun have published a list of every player’s net worth and the results are fascinating. The richest player has earned an astronomical £110 million over the course of his career, while the player in 26th place has only just cracked the £1 million mark. Let’s take a closer look at the list…

England Squad: 2026 World Cup Rich List

26. Nico O’Reilly | £1 million

As one of the youngest members of the England squad, it’s no surprise that Manchester City’s Nico O’Reilly is bottom of the pile. Still, a net worth of £1 million at the age of 21 isn’t bad, eh?

25. Elliot Anderson | £2.5 million

Expect the 23-year-old’s net worth to rise considerably if he seals a move away from Nottingham Forest after the World Cup.

24. Djed Spence | £3 million

The Tottenham full-back is next up with a net worth of £3 million.

23. Kobbie Mainoo | £3.5 million

18. Dan Burn | £6 million

The oldest members of England’s World Cup squad, not even Dan Burn himself would have expected to be on the plane just a few years ago.

Aston Villa’s Ezri Konsa, 28, is next up with a net worth of £6.5 million.

16. Eberechi Eze | £7 million

Bryce Mitchell Goes Viral For Strong Reaction to Sean Strickland’s White House Ban

Published

Following the news that Sean Strickland has been banned from attending the UFC Freedom 250 event, a number of fighters have had their say on the matter.

UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland took to X to confirm he has been instructed not to attend the UFC event, due to take place on the South Lawn of the White House on the 14th of June.

Strickland has claimed that because he has spoken out about President Trump’s associations with Jeffrey Epstein and the Israeli Prime Minister, he has been ordered by Dana White and the rest of the UFC hierarchy to stay away from the Presidential home.

The fall-out has continued, as fellow UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell has had his say on the matter, who is never one to shy away from controversial topics.

What Bryce Mitchell Has Said About Sean Strickland’s Ban

Bryce Mitchell

Reacting to the middleweight champion’s ban, Mitchell said: “I’m not surprised at all.”

The 31-year-old went on to explain how he believes that freedom of speech is an important part of being American and should allow a person to criticise if and when they see fit.

“We ought to be able to criticise our own nation, let alone a foreign nation. [Israel] is the only nation you’re not allowed to criticise. Something’s gonna change, because evil empires won’t last forever.”

Despite siding with Strickland, Mitchell did admit that he would jump at the chance to be a part of the card for UFC Freedom 250.

“I do want to be on the card,” he added, before explaining that he isn’t jealous of the likes of Derrick Lewis, Alex Pereira, and Sean O’Malley. “This is what I gotta say, I ain’t jealous of any of those fighters. I am so happy for those fighters.

“If they need me to fill in, if I’m healthy, hey, I’ll do it.”

Bryce Mitchell’s Previous Controversies

The 18-3 fighter has a history of controversial takes, from claiming COVID-19 was created by the US government, to praising Adolf Hitler and denying that the Holocaust happened, so he probably isn’t someone Sean Strickland sees as a worthwhile advocate.

Mitchell does, however, go on to say that he thinks sport and government shouldn’t go hand in hand.

“But what I think, personally, is that our government has desecrated its role in society by entertaining sports. Our government is to protect and serve the people.”

Strickland won’t be at the White House for UFC Freedom 250 and he’s not happy about it.

Mitchell is defiant in his opinion that the UFC should not be working with the White House to host an event, but he does refrain from putting the blame on the likes of Dana White, and says it is an opportunity that the UFC could not turn down. He puts the blame solely on the US government, claiming: “We already have a corrupted government.”

Mitchell is in action this Saturday on the UFC Vegas 118 card when he takes on Satiago Luna.

Sean Strickland Reveals Why He’s Been Banned From White House For UFC Freedom 250

With the UFC White House event just around the corner, one champion has had his say on the whole situation.

The UFC brings the Octagon to the South Lawn of the White House on the 14th of June, with a stacked card including Ilia Topuria returning to face interim lightweight champion Justin Gaethje, and Sean O’Malley, Derrick Lewis, and Alex Pereira all in actions as well, including the latter’s heavyweight debut.

One fighter not involved, however, is Sean Strickland, the only current male American UFC champion, who has been told to stay away from the White House event due to his criticism of President Donald Trump.

The middleweight champion has previously been a vocal supporter of Trump. However, he has openly condemned his handling of the Iran war.

On top of this, Strickland has spoken out about President Trump’s association with Jeffrey Epstein as well as his dealings with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Donald Trump’s Controversial Plan to Screen UFC Freedom 250 Attendees Has Been ‘Leaked’

The President has strict rules in place…

Strickland has said that he has been informed by the bosses at UFC to not attend the event, saying: “I made fun of Israel and Epstein. The only male American champ banned at the White House.

“The only male American champ banned at the White House because I said Trump is owned by [Netanyahu]. That’s not public opinion, it’s fact.”

Sean Strickland Breaks Silence on White House Ban

The 35-year-old fighter posted a video on X in which he made these claims. He went on to say he still plans to go to the event: “I already bought my plane ticket. I’m gonna bring the belt, get a big f****** bullhorn, and we’re gonna go right up to the gates.

“We’ll let them know what we really think about Trump and Israel.”

The California native has acknowledged that it may not have been the President himself who banned him from UFC White House. He posted on X after the video: “I highly doubt Trump is sitting there saying, ‘Don’t clear Sean.’ I’m sure he knows nothing about me being blacklisted but regardless, it was done.”

Whether the UFC veteran has actually been banned remains to be seen, but the whole situation feels like a WWE storyline. Especially with his threats to turn up at the gates wearing bullhorns.

It wouldn’t be a huge shock if Dana White and co. did in fact ban Strickland. The middleweight champion is a known loose cannon, and with so many issues to address in order for the UFC Freedom 250 to go off without a hitch, it may well be in their best interests to tell him to stay away.
