Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly ready to launch the offensive to sign Manchester United attacker Marcus Rashford in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Graeme Bailey on HITC, Marcus Rashford is the subject of interest from Paris Saint-Germain. The Ligue 1 champions are willing to launch a bid to sign the Manchester United attacker. Meanwhile, the Red Devils are open to listening to offers for the 26-year-old if his suitors present an attractive offer in the summer transfer window.
Marcus Rashford and his journey at Manchester United thus far
Marcus Rashford has endured a rollercoaster ride since breaking into the first-team squad at Manchester United in 2016. The Englishman has enjoyed many exceptional campaigns but has also been prone to being well off his best in other seasons.
2023/24 was an example of the latter, with Rashford being a shell of his best. The 26-year-old managed only eight goals and five assists in 43 appearances across all competitions. That campaign came after his best-ever season, where the player had breached the 30-goal mark.
However, Rashford’s dreadful 2023/24 campaign has created widespread speculation surrounding his long-term future at Manchester United. While some reports have suggested that the Red Devils do not want to sell the English international, others have claimed he is on the chopping block. Meanwhile, he is a target for Paris Saint-Germain.
Rashford to replace Mbappe at PSG?
PSG’s interest in Marcus Rashford is understandable. The reigning Ligue 1 champions are losing Kylian Mbappe as a free agent, with the Frenchman joining Real Madrid in a Bosman move in the summer transfer window. Mbappe’s departure will create a gaping hole in the offensive unit, compelling PSG to scour the market for a replacement.
Rashford has thus emerged as a viable target, with the latest update pointing to PSG being ready to launch the offensive to sign the 26-year-old Manchester United star. Meanwhile, the report by Graeme Bailey on HITC has claimed that the Red Devils are open to selling the Englishman for an attractive offer.
So, it will be interesting to see if PSG can produce an appealing offer to convince Manchester United to sell Rashford while turning the player’s head. Coaxing the English international to move to Parc des Princes might be the toughest task.
