Arsenal are plotting a summer swoop for Marcus Rashford at the end of the season, with the English forward thought to be \u2018considering his future\u2019 at Manchester United.<\/p>\n

That is according to the Mirror<\/a>, who claim that \u2018the Gunners are in the market for a frontline striker and will add the name of\u00a0Manchester United\u2019s striker to their hit-list.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

It is certainly true that Arsenal are in the market for a striker, but that is not a role that Rashford has fulfilled in recent years, instead operating on the flanks for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and now Ralf Rangnick.<\/p>\n

That is not to say that he could not revert back to a striker however, but he may not be the level that the Gunners are looking for based on his recent performances.<\/p>\n

Rashford\u2019s stick or twist summer<\/h2>\n

It is an important summer for Rashford. His career is under threat of stalling completely in the next few months as he has been left out of Gareth Southgate\u2019s England squad for the friendlies against Switzerland and Ivory Coast in the international break.<\/p>\n

Coming back from shoulder surgery earlier in the season, the England forward has struggled for game time this season, and has done little in the time afforded to him to suggest he warrants additional time at Old Trafford.<\/p>\n

It is not just Arsenal interested, however. Paris Saint Germain are reportedly keeping him in mind as a potential replacement for Kylian Mbappe should the Frenchman join Real Madrid this summer.<\/p>\n
