Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford has been linked with a move away from the club in recent weeks.
The 27-year-old has he struggled for regular playing time at Old Trafford and might have to move on and look for regular game time. Arsenal and Newcastle United have been linked with the player, however Mark Douglas of Inews claims that both clubs are unwilling to pay a substantial amount of money for the England international due to financial constraints.
The player has also been linked with Paris Saint-Germain and clubs in Saudi Arabia. Rashford is said to want to continue in European football and it will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Newcastle and Arsenal need a quality striker
Newcastle could certainly use more quality in attack and Rashford would have been a quality signing for them. He could complete his attacking unit alongside Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon. However, the player is likely to cost a premium and Newcastle will be priced out of a move. They also need to improve other areas of their squad and cannot afford to spend the bulk of their budget on the 27-year-old.
Similarly, Arsenal are also in need of attacking reinforcements, especially with Gabriel Jesus struggling to score goals on a consistent basis. While Rashford hasn’t been at his best, he is still a quality player who has proven himself in the Premier League over the years. He could have been a quality signing for the London club.
It will be interesting to see where the striker ends up. He is at the peak of his powers, and will want to compete at a high level and push for trophies each season. Manchester United might have to be reasonable with their demands in order for any potential move to go through.
