Arsenal considering bargain deal for one of Europe’s most in-form forwards | OneFootball

Manchester United star Marcus Rashford is currently on loan at Barcelona, and he has been outstanding for the Spanish club.

They have the option to sign him permanently for £26 million, but they have not yet decided whether to exercise the purchase option. Meanwhile, Tottenham are also interested in Rashford.

Marcus Rashford keen on Barcelona move

According to a report from TeamTalk, the player is determined to continue in Spain with Barcelona, but Arsenal are also monitoring his situation. It will be interesting to see if Barcelona is willing to get the deal done.

Arsenal could use more quality in the final third, and Rashford would be an excellent acquisition for them. The 28-year-old can operate anywhere across the front three, and he could add goals and creativity to the team. He could slot into the left wing role for Arsenal, and he could complete their front three.

Can Arsenal convince Rashford?

The opportunity to join a club like Arsenal could be an interesting option for the player as well, especially if Barcelona decides to walk away from the permanent move. He will want to compete at the highest level and play regularly. Arsenal could provide him with that platform.

The Gunners are favourites to win the Premier League title this season, and they have reached the final of the UEFA Champions League as well. There is no doubt that they are one of the best teams in the world, and any player would be tempted to join them.

The asking price is quite reasonable, and Arsenal have the finances to get the deal done. However, he earns £325,000 per week and might need to adjust his wages to get the deal done.

Arsenal will not want to pay that kind of money to a 28-year-old.

Meanwhile, the player has 13 goals and 14 assists this season, and he could prove to be a major upgrade on players like Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Martinelli and Noni Madueke.
