German giants receive boost in pursuit of Man United ace

Bayern Munich have added Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford to their target list for the left wing.

The German giants are keen to sign a left winger this summer. Their approach for Liverpool’s Luis Diaz was rejected, and they are unlikely to sign any of Nico Williams, Rafael Leao, or Bradley Barcola.

With Bayern finding it difficult to sign any of their priority targets for the left wing, they could shift attention towards Rashford.

Journalist Ben Jacobs reports that the England international would be open to joining Bayern.

He told The United Stand: “Bayern are looking for a left-sided winger but have lots of names on their shortlist, however, those targets are looking like difficult deals to do. Rashford would welcome a bid from Bayern Munich.”

Rashford’s preferred destination is Barcelona, but a move to the Catalonia outfit would be difficult.

They are proposing a loan move while United want to sell him permanently for £40 million.

United want to sign a new striker and are banking on using the proceeds from his sale, alongside those of Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho, and Anthony, to do so.

Rashford has the chance to reignite his career at Bayern

A move to the Bavarians could help the 27-year-old rediscover his best form, although he would have to fight for a place in the starting line-up.

Serge Gnabry and Kingsley Coman are Bayern’s main left-wing options, but Rashford has a good chance of beating them to a place in the starting line-up.

Gnabry and Coman have struggled with form and injuries—they have not scored double figures in goals in each of the last two seasons.

Rashford has done relatively better, scoring more than 10 goals once in the last two campaigns.

With the struggles of Coman and Gnabry, Rashford has the potential to cement a place in Vincent Kompany’s starting XI.

Although he can play anywhere across the frontline, securing the left wing role is his best chance of being a regular in the starting line-up.
