£350k-a-week star tipped for shock move this January window – Manchester United ready to get £40M deal done
Former Premier League star turned pundit Joe Cole believes Arsenal could wrap up a surprise deal for Manchester United outcast Marcus Rashford ‘if the money is right’ this January transfer window
He really struggled last season under boss Erik Ten Hag and has only managed to score 8 goals in all competitions for United, which is not good enough for a player of his ability and quality when he is on top of his game, and he has not been any better this season.
Now, According to the Telegraph, United started welcoming bids for the 27-year-old last summer following a drastic loss of form, and are ready to let him leave the club before the close of the transfer window, with AC Milan and Juventus just two clubs that are interested.
But addressing the situation on Al Arabiya News’ The Dressing Room podcast, ex-West Ham star Cole suggested the London Stadium could be a good fit for the out-of-favour England international.
‘There aren’t many options for him because he’s on such big wages,’ Cole said.
‘If I’m West Ham manager and I’m talking to David Sullivan [West Ham chairman] and they say there is a possibility of it happening, I would say, “Get me him!”, and I’d get an arm around the shoulder.
‘I’d just have a chat with him and ask him, “Marcus, what do you need? Tell me. I want you here, whatever you need…”, it’s man-management.’
On a potential move to Arsenal, he added: ‘If the money is right, I think they would. ‘Because I don’t think Manchester United see themselves this season, for a loan deal, competing with Arsenal.
‘I don’t know, maybe Manchester United fans might tell me different.’ Cole went on: ‘He’s a left forward. He’s never looked comfortable, for me, centrally.
‘I think the secret for Marcus is everyone around him, what he comes with, getting them all on side and saying, “Listen, let’s try and make this thing happen!”, I’d love to see it.’
