Roma's striker hunt: Rashford on the table amid Kone talks
Rashford has been offered to Roma as part of ongoing Kone talks with Manchester United, according to reports. The English winger currently earns €11 million net per season, a figure that exceeds the Italian club’s salary cap.
Roma are working to give Gian Piero Gasperini a striker, with the club’s most discussed options coming from Germany. Antonio Nusa and Said El Mala have been highlighted as solid names for the Giallorossi.
Beyond the German prospects, the Roman side is quietly evaluating other possibilities, keeping its search for a forward discreet. This broader scouting reflects the club’s desire to find the right fit for Gasperini’s system.
A transfer intrigue could unfold with Manchester United, involving Marcus Rashford and Manu Koné. The Red Devils must decide whether to make a move for the Frenchman as part of any potential deal.

At Trigoria, the English winger would be a welcome prospect for the Grugliasco‑based coach, who could finally have a quality player at his disposal for the left‑back position, despite being right‑footed. However, Rashford’s high salary remains a significant hurdle.
According to La dello Sport, United could offer the 1997‑born player to the Giallorossi in negotiations for Koné. The arrangement is expected to involve a loan deal with the Red Devils covering part of Rashford’s salary.

The proposed loan option seems unlikely, but it should not be completely ruled out. Both clubs remain aware of the financial and sporting implications of such a move.
If the loan were to proceed, Roma could secure a quality left‑back while United would alleviate part of Rashford’s wage bill, though the scenario remains speculative.
