PSG have made Marcus Rashford their top summer target.
The boss of the French side Thomas Tuchel is a huge fan of the 22-year old, due to his directness, versatility, and speed, and believes that English football does not appreciate how good the England striker is.
Manchester United, even in the post Covid-19 era, would want at least £100 million for their academy graduate, but PSG would be willing to pay that.
Rashford has three years left on his current contract at Old Trafford and is in no hurry to leave his boyhood-club, although he and his representatives would be prepared to listen to offers if they were attractive enough.
Rashford has recently drawn widespread praise for his social activism away from the pitch, helping to support a food package scheme designed to help hungry children and forcing the British government in to a humiliating U-turn when they threatened to withdraw support for the programme.
Andy is an exiled English football fan living in Cyprus. He loves all sports but football is his abiding passion, and he still has dreams every now and then about scoring the winning goal in a Wembley Cup Final, even though his playing days are long gone. He follows most major leagues, across Europe at least, and has a favoured team in each. When he’s not watching, listening, reading or downloading podcasts about football, he spend his time worrying about his beloved Arsenal.
