Liverpool Transfer News: Reds Missed Out on Marcus Rashford, Andre Ayew Rumours

Marcus Rashford has made major headlines at Manchester United this season, but the English youngster came close to signing for Liverpool as a child, it's emerged. Plus, the Reds previously turned down the chance to sign Andre Ayew, according to his brother.

Sam Cunningham of MailOnline reported on Friday Liverpool attempted to lure the striker to Anfield when he was seven years old and playing for Fletcher Moss Rangers.

Rashford could have represented United rivals Liverpool.

Everton, which eventual United boss David Moyes managed at the time, were also in the mix to pen the attacker's signature, but he ultimately opted for the Red Devils—a choice that's paying dividends now.
