Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford will hold talks with new boss Erik ten Hag before his future is decided. This will determine his future with the club, according to 90min.com, who say that a move to Newcastle United is far from out of the question for the England international.

Newcastle are said to be looking at making marquee signings this summer, and a player of Rashford’s profile would certainly fit the bill of what the recruitment team are looking for.

Rashford has really struggled with Man United this season. Perhaps he’ll think a move elsewhere can give him a fresh start. He’s lost his place in the England squad and wants to be in the mix for the World Cup this year.

Newcastle will look to bolster their attacking options in the summer. In the past, he’s been labelled ‘word-class’ by talkSPORT pundit, Jason Cundy. If the Magpies could get the best out of him, they could reap the rewards.

A lack of European football could be an obstacle for Newcastle trying to land Rashford

Newcastle United have an enormous amount of wealth with the new PIF ownership. However, what will be an obstacle this season is their lack of European football.

But successful Newcastle transfer targets include Kieran Trippier and Bruno Guimaraes. Two players who have a lot of quality and greatly improved the side.

Marcus Rashford might have had a bad season, but top clubs will be keeping tabs on him. He’ll think that he can still be good enough to play Champions League or Europa League football next season.

Furthermore, Erik ten Hag could see value in holding onto Rashford. The future Manchester United boss could have plans for him next season.

But there’s no doubt he would be a great signing if they agreed on terms. It could take Newcastle to that next level, which is where they’re aiming to be.

It’s actually not the first time that Newcastle have been linked with signing Rashford either, with these reports adding further credence to previous claims that Howe’s men are taking a look.

The project PIF has in place long-term aims to make them one of the top sides in England. Possibly the world should they progress forwards.

There will be a number of Newcastle transfer targets this summer. Rashford certainly stands out, it all weighs on how he sees his future with Man United.
