Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford has been linked with a move away from the Premier League club of late.
Marcus Rashford has not been his best for a while, and Manchester United have decided to cash in on him. According to a report by Daily Mail, the Red Devils have set a £40 million asking price on the England international.
Rashford has previously proven his quality in the Premier League, and he could prove to be an exceptional acquisition for any top club if he can regain his peak form. Recent reports have linked him with Barcelona.
The England international attacker is capable of operating anywhere across the front three, and he will add pace, flair, creativity, and goals to an offensive unit. Manchester United are already lacking in attacking reinforcements, and it would be quite surprising if they decided to sanction his departure without signing a top-class player.
Even though the Englishman has not been his best, he remains a very useful player for Manchester United and they need to hold onto him until the end of the season. There is unlikely to be any shortage of clubs looking to sign the Englishman if he is made available.
The player will be fully aware of the fact that he has not been at his best for a while, and he will be desperate to get back to top form. Perhaps a move away from Manchester United would be ideal for him.
A fresh start could bring out the best in him and help him work his way back to top form without being put under too much pressure. Manchester United are going through a rough patch. So, the players are already under immense pressure to deliver every week.
Manchester United to replace Rashford?
It remains to be seen how the situational folds. Manchester United have been linked with players like Viktor Gyokeres in recent months, and it will be interesting to see if they decide to make a move for the Swedish international.
Gyokeres could prove to be an upgrade on someone like Rashford, and it would not be a surprise if the Red Devils decided to replace the Englishman with the Sporting CP striker. Ruben Amorim worked with the Swede during his time at the Portuguese club, and his presence at Old Trafford could help Manchester United get the deal across the line.
