MARCUS Rashford’s plans for a dream home on a golf course appear to be stuck in the rough four years after he bought it for £1.5million.
The England and Man United ace wanted to knock down the nine-holer’s clubhouse set in 63 acres.
He aimed to replace it with a five-bedroom home with indoor pool, plant room, games room and chill-out area.
Architect plans also include space for an outdoor swimming pool and entertaining area.
But locals say work on the build, underneath the flight path for Manchester airport, is sporadic and the site is regularly empty.
It has led to fears that the project may be a “money pit”, even for the £350,000-a-week forward.

A source said: “This was Marcus’ dream project. He was really excited at the start.
“But while the build looks finished, there’s an awful lot of work to be done internally.
“The gardens need to be completely landscaped and the estimated cost of looking after what used to be the golf course is at least £150,000 a year.
“There’s a fear that Marcus has bitten off more than he can chew.”
