According to a report by The Times, Manchester United star forward Marcus Rashford has been included on Paris St Germain’s list of summer transfers.
The Parisian club is preparing to deal with a huge blow as mega superstar Kylian Mbappé is set to leave the club in the summer.
This season has been a shadow of last for Marcus Rashford, struggling to find the form that had defences all over England shivering at the sight of him.
The English winger has even been dropped from the match day squad twice by Erik ten Hag for disciplinary reasons.
Rashford is currently on 12 goals and assists in 33 appearances this season: an underwhelming return vis a vis his 30-goal haul last season.
All in all, the season has not been quite colourful for Marcus and PSG are looking to pounce.
PSG and Luis Enrique will be looking to find a solution to life without their star forward, Mbappé, who always seems to have all the answers.
His future destination is still a tad murky, albeit most reports have Real Madrid as his final destination.
Rashford would do just fine filling in for Mbappé as both players are relatively of the same profile: rapid, direct, ball carrying and can come in from the left or play as a striker.
The report also claims that PSG’s football advisor Luis Campos had previously had talks with Marcus and his contingent over a possible move back in the summer of 2022.
That however failed to materialize as financial restrictions got in the way.
The shaky, somewhat unhappy, season Rashford’s been having coupled with the disciplinary issues may give PSG some semblance of hope that the move will materialize.
Rashford however is Mancunian born and bred. It will be nigh on impossible to woo him away from his boyhood club.
The winger is also fresh from signing a new 300,000 pound a week deal last July until 2028 giving United the high ground were there a formal approach for Rashford from the Parisian side.
