Former Gunners star Emmanuel Petit has opened up and claimed that ARSENAL should look into signing out of favour Manchester United winger Marcus Rashford this January transfer window.
Rashford has not played for United for nearly a month now and several weeks on from saying he wanted a “new challenge”. The England international is reportedly more likely to leave on loan in January, with AC Milan among the sides keeping tabs on him.
However – amid all the speculation and rumours that Arsenal are interested in adding to the squad this January, Petit has told the Gunners that they should add the England winger to the attack: ‘Marcus Rashford would be an interesting signing for Arsenal,’ Petit said.
‘I’m very frustrated with Gabriel Martinelli’s performances at the moment, he’s very inconsistent and it’s annoying to watch. He’s been like a ghost on the pitch.
‘Competition for a spot in the XI is important for Arsenal, look at Liverpool’s bench, the quality they have is amazing.
‘I know Nico Williams has been linked, but I’m told he’ll never come to the Premier League if he leaves Athletic Bilbao, he’d only go to Barcelona.
‘The Raheem Sterling gamble has not worked. Rashford, if he’s in the team and playing football in a good environment with a manager who trusts him, you will see the best of him.
‘Is that manager Mikel Arteta? If I’m him, I would definitely have an eye on that situation at Manchester United.
‘He’s not the same player from two years ago, but we all know the level he can reach, quality like that doesn’t just disappear.’

We believe that Rashford needs a complete change of scenery, his time in the Premier League is done and he would not be a regular starter at ARSENAL – the best thing for him is to leave the English top-flight and see what experience a different culture.
