Negotiations are underway regarding Marcus Rashford, with Everton keen to finalise a deal with Manchester United as they look to strengthen their squad for the run-in. The forward has emerged as a top transfer target in recent weeks, and the player's representatives are also believed to be involved in early discussions on personal terms. Whether a deal can be struck remains to be seen, but there is increasing optimism that the transfer could go through in the coming days. Manchester United have not withdrawn their interest and could still influence the outcome. Everton's 26/27 output of 1.14 goals per game is behind league levels. The addition of Marcus Rashford would give them the sharper edge they're missing in front of goal. Alongside this, Manchester United are said to be exploring Lennart Karl, Fikayo Tomori and Diego Alexander Gomez Amarilla with Everton likewise connected to Tiago Gabriel, Nicolo Tresoldi and Dion Beljo.
