The report says the clubs have discussed the possibility of a deal, although talks remain at an early stage and there is no agreement. It is also unclear whether Everton would seek a permanent transfer or a loan arrangement.
Rashford returned to Old Trafford this summer after Barcelona opted against making his loan move permanent. The 28-year-old had enjoyed a productive season in Spain, but his next step was unresolved when he returned to Manchester.
United had been willing to sell the forward during the summer, but no proposal met the club’s valuation. The report says United’s asking price remains around €30 million, while Rashford’s wages could also complicate negotiations.
The England international initially featured after returning to the squad, but his role has diminished in recent league matches. He has made six starts across competitions this season without a direct goal contribution, leaving open the possibility that both player and club could consider another move.
Everton are exploring options ahead of the winter transfer window, with attacking reinforcements among their priorities. However, the reported conversations do not mean a deal is close, and key questions remain over the fee, structure and Rashford’s own willingness to join.
Rashford’s contract at Manchester United runs until June 2028, giving the club time to negotiate rather than accept an offer simply to avoid losing him for nothing. Any permanent transfer would therefore require Everton to meet United’s financial expectations, while a loan could offer a different route if the clubs can agree on wages and other terms.
The situation is being reported by FootballTransfers, which says the discussions were confirmed by its sources. Neither club has publicly announced negotiations, and there is no indication that an agreement has been reached.
January remains several weeks away, leaving time for other clubs to enter the picture or for Everton’s interest to develop. For Rashford, the key issue is whether a move can provide a clearer route to regular football after an uncertain return to United.
