The forward could follow in the footsteps of his former teammate and make a similar move.

Marcus Rashford has thrown his future into uncertainty by admitting he is ready for a “new challenge.” The boyhood Manchester United supporter was notably left out of the squad for their dramatic 2-1 win against rivals Manchester City at the Etihad.

Rashford’s comments came amidst growing speculation that Manchester United may be willing to sell the England international. In an interview with journalist Henry Winter, he said, “For me, personally, I think I’m ready for a new challenge and the next steps.” He added, “When I leave it’s going to be ‘no hard feelings’. You’re not going to have any negative comments from me about Manchester United. That’s me as a person. If I know that a situation is already bad I’m not going to make it worse.”

“I’ve seen how other players have left in the past and I don’t want to be that person.

“When I leave, I’ll make a statement, and it will be from me.”

He had previously been linked with the Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain when his deal was due to end in 2023.

However, he stayed at Old Trafford after extending his contract last year.

However his future is now up in the air, with new manager Ruben Amorim axing him from last weekend’s Manchester derby.

Rashford, 27, was left out of the squad for Manchester United’s victory over Manchester City along with Alejandro Garnacho.

The omission has come amid speculation that he could be sold by the Red Devils.

Sky Germany have reported that Man United “would sell” Rashford by the summer at the latest.

It is also claimed that the club are “open to top offers” during the upcoming January transfer window.

With Rashford’s future on the line, here SunSport looks at five teams he could join.

PSG

The French champions have been heavily linked with Rashford over the past few seasons.

And PSG are yet to fully replace Neymar on the left-wing, opening up the opportunity for Rashford to do so.

Bayern Munich

The German giants were linked with Rashford earlier in the season, just after the summer window.

England skipper Harry Kane could help tempt over Rashford but he would have heavy competition in Kingsley Coman and Serge Gnabry.

Barcelona

The Spanish champs reportedly turned their attention to Rashford after missing out on the signing of Nico Williams last summer.

Barcelona are stocked up on wide options but with Robert Lewandowski now 36, Rashford’s ability to play centrally could be key.

Arsenal

The Gunners have never shied away from signing stars from rivals, recently Kai Havertz and Raheem Sterling from Chelsea.

And if Rashford wants to remain in the Premier League, a move to Arsenal under Mikel Arteta could attract the forward.

Chelsea

An outsider for Rashford’s next move could be a switch to West London, similar to what his former Manchester United teammate Jadon Sancho did last summer. However, Chelsea already have strong options on the left wing, with Sancho, Joao Felix, and Pedro Neto all occupying that flank this season. Additionally, winger Mykhailo Mudryk is currently suspended and could face a ban of up to four years after failing a drug test, potentially opening up further opportunities at Chelsea.
