Amad’s Social Media Shenanigans…
The Red Devils’ zippity zapper Amad might just be packing his bags for Toon Town this summer—IF—and it’s a big, contorted ‘if’—Marcus ‘Rash-Flash’ Rashford takes a flight to No-Camp Nou. The ‘Old’ Trafford seems like it might lose its Rasher-Dasher after Aston Villa passed on their £40 million chance like a slippery eel on a wet football pitch. But fret not; Newcastle’s Toon army, under Captain Howe, are lurking in the shadows, bags of crisps and Geordie dialects at the ready, hoping to woo the winger onto their sacred St. James’ turf.
Meanwhile, Barcelona, whose wallets are about as full as a broke student’s on Sunday night, are eyeing Rashford like he’s a shiny new pencil for their stationery collection—though they’re juggling budgets like a rookie circus clown. Rumor has it that Rashford dreams of wearing the famous Blaugrana shirt whilst dribbling past Catalan castles. Sounds dreamy, hey? But the Magpies believe that the Premier League stage is the holiest of all, with team bonds as tight as a pair of shrunken gym shorts.
The number ten shirt at United may hit the open road if Rash-Flash jets off, but Amad’s been dropping cryptic teaser trailers on Instagram, like a modern-day Sherlock with a football instead of a magnifying glass. With his post, “16 [hourglass emoji]”, fans are left to speculate: Is this a countdown to his new Toon number? Or time expiring on his United property? Either way, stock up on popcorn folks, this transfer season’s gonna be a kicker!
