Arsenal are plotting a summer swoop for Marcus Rashford at the end of the season, with the English forward thought to be ‘considering his future’ at Manchester United.
That is according to the Mirror, who claim that ‘the Gunners are in the market for a frontline striker and will add the name of Manchester United’s striker to their hit-list.’
It is certainly true that Arsenal are in the market for a striker, but that is not a role that Rashford has fulfilled in recent years, instead operating on the flanks for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and now Ralf Rangnick.
That is not to say that he could not revert back to a striker however, but he may not be the level that the Gunners are looking for based on his recent performances.
