Arsenal are reportedly closely keeping tabs on Marcus Rashford’s contract situation at Old Trafford, with the North London giants exploring the possibility of signing the centre-forward next year.

 

The 24-year-old’s struggles during the 2021-22 season led to suggestions that he could depart from Old Trafford over the summer, however, he has been an important player this term under new Red Devils manager Erik ten Hag.

Rashford has scored three times and provided two assists in seven Premier League games, however, his current contract in Manchester is set to expire at the end of June.
