According to El Nacional, West Ham has unexpectedly become the frontrunner in the race for the 27-year-old player. The Hammers are preparing to take concrete steps in the coming days to start negotiations with both the player and the Red Devils.

It is noted that Rashford himself is ready to move to London, with the main factor in this change being the arrival of Graham Potter as the head coach of West Ham.
