According to The Sun, Manchester United will not allow Marcus Rashford to leave, with Arsenal and Newcastle interested in the unsettled striker.

What’s the story?

Well, the £200,000-a-week man has found life difficult under Ralf Rangnick, and has only scored four Premier League goals this season.

According to the Guardian, Rashford is seriously considering an exit from Old Trafford, due to a lack of playing time.

It was 90min who claimed that Arsenal and Newcastle want to sign the England international, although Mikel Arteta and Eddie Howe won’t enjoy this latest update.

The Sun believe every candidate Manchester United have spoken to who could replace Rangnick has told them not to sell Rashford.

A source from Old Trafford claimed the Red Devils still value the 24-year-old highly, and he would be a figurehead in their rebuild.

Forget Newcastle, Marcus Rashford would thrive at Arsenal

We highly doubt Manchester United would ever sell Rashford to Arsenal, seeing as both clubs are rivals for the top four.

However, if the Red Devils No.10 did somehow end up in north London, we believe he’d thrive under Arteta.

Rashford would be surrounded by creativity through the likes of Martin Ødegaard, Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka, under a progressive manager who loves to attack.

A front four of Rashford, Saka, Smith Rowe and Gabriel Martinelli would be an utter nightmare for defenders to deal with, as each of them possess great pace, and the ability to interchange their positions.

Keep an eye on this saga – if Rashford joins another Premier League side, it would be one of the biggest stories of the summer.
