Marcus Rashford has started the current Premier League campaign as disappointingly as he finished the last. One goal and one assist from his opening 11 Premier League matches is a disappointing return from a player once heralded to be Old Trafford's next big thing. With the Englishman failing to live up to his prior hype once again, a move away from Manchester United may be on the cards.
With new manager Ruben Amorim expected to shake things up at Manchester United, Rashford may be one of the casualties of his tenure. Amorim likes to play a high intensity 3-4-2-1 formation, which Rashford is unlikely to be suited to given his low quality of pressing. With a lot of clubs lining up to attempt to return the winger to his former best, we take a look at which clubs are most likely to be suitors for the 27-year-old.
Marcus Rashford next club betting odds
Below is a table of the top five teams expected to make a bid for Rashford, should he decide to depart Old Trafford in next summer's transfer window. When considering the current prices, Barcelona appear to have the best chance of landing the England international.
| Team | Best odds |
|---|---|
| Barcelona |
13/8 |
| PSG |
11/4 |
| Arsenal |
9/1 |
| Bayern Munich |
12/1 |
| Real Madrid |
33/1 |
Teams to watch
Barcelona – 13/8
Hansi Flick's Barcelona are the current favourites to take Rashford on and revitalise his career. Flick has something of a magic touch when it comes to getting the best out of struggling players, as he has completely rejuvenated former Leeds star Raphinha this season. The Brazilian currently has seven goals and six assists in 13 league matches, and is also the joint top scorer in the Champions League.
With Rashford having lost that golden touch he had in the 2022/23 season where he scored 17 league goals, Flick may just be the man to return him to his former glory with the Blaugrana. At 13/8 they are the favourites, but not by much
PSG – 11/4
PSG have emerged as another option for Rashford. Luis Enrique's side have really struggled in the Champions League this season, only amassing four points from four games. The club currently sits outside the qualification places of the competition's new league stage format.
Since the departure of star player Kylian Mbappe to Real Madrid, PSG have not been able to find a marquee player of a similar calibre to replace the Frenchman. Although hardly as lauded as Mbappe, Rashford fits the bill for the type of renowned player that could take over the mantle at the French giants.
Arsenal – 9/1
Shockingly, close Premier League rivals Arsenal have also presented themselves to be willing to take a punt on Rashford. With Leandro Trossard rumoured to be interested in a move to Saudi Arabia in the summer and Gabriel Martinelli only managing three goals and two assists in 11 league games, the Manchester United man could be the perfect gamble for Mikel Arteta.
With Arsenal having transitioned to a more defensive, lower press setup in recent months, the style of play implemented at the London club could be exactly what Rashford needs to succeed.
Given an outside chance of securing Rashford's services at 9/1, Arsenal's high speed counter-attacks and good possession play are what makes the winger tick, so expect Arteta to get the best out of him if he decides to make an unprecedented switch to The Emirates. A Trossard departure would see Arsenal's odds shorten, so now would be the time to back the move before it is too late.
