Reports suggest Arsenal are considering a surprise swoop for Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford in the upcoming transfer window. The England international, who has struggled for consistency this season, could be open to a fresh challenge—and the Gunners may offer him an escape route.
Why Rashford?
Mikel Arteta is keen to add more firepower to his attack, and Rashford’s versatility—capable of playing on the left wing or through the middle—makes him an appealing option. Despite his recent dip in form, the 26-year-old has proven he can be a match-winner on his day, with 131 goals for United.
Would United Sell to a Rival?
The bigger question is whether United would allow one of their homegrown stars to join a direct rival. However, with financial pressures and Rashford’s contract running until 2028, the Red Devils may demand a hefty fee—potentially upwards of £60m.
A Risk Worth Taking?
While Rashford’s inconsistency is a concern, a change of scenery under Arteta’s guidance could reignite his career. For Arsenal, signing a proven Premier League attacker with a point to prove might be a gamble worth
taking.
