Marcus Rashford recently revealed that he is considering leaving Manchester United in search of a new challenge. The talented forward has caught the attention of Arsenal, who are currently third in line to acquire him in the upcoming January transfer window. Rashford's decision to potentially leave United was solidified when he openly admitted his readiness for a new chapter in his career.
In a recent interview with Henry Winter, Rashford shared that he has no hard feelings towards Manchester United and will not make any negative comments about his time with the club. He also stated that he wants to avoid being a player who leaves on bad terms, and when he does eventually depart, he will make a statement on his own terms.
After a successful season in 2022/23 where he scored 30 goals, Rashford struggled to maintain his form last season, only scoring eight times in 43 games. Now, at 27 years old, his inconsistency has continued into this season and it seems he has already started planning for his exit from United. However, Rashford's high salary of £325,000 a week may make it challenging for United to find a buyer for him.
According to Betfair, Paris Saint-Germain are the most likely destination for Rashford in January at 7/2 odds. Other potential options for him include a move to the Saudi Pro League at 6/1 odds or a switch to Arsenal, who have shown previous interest in him, at 8/1 odds. Despite their recent financial struggles, Barcelona have also been listed as a potential destination for Rashford at 11/1 odds, while Chelsea, who had previously taken Jadon Sancho on loan from United, also have odds of 11/1.
In response to Rashford's comments, United manager Ruben Amorim emphasized the importance of having players like Rashford at the club and stated that his focus is on helping him perform at his best. Amorim also expressed his desire to bring out the best in all of his players and help the team succeed in the present. As for Rashford's future, Amorim did not comment, instead choosing to focus on the current season and the team's goals. He believes that United is stronger with Rashford on the team and will do his best to push him to reach his full potential.
