Gary Neville has broken his silence on the Marcus Rashford conundrum at Manchester United, delivering a sobering assessment of the forward's future at the club he once called home.
The former United defender turned Sky Sports pundit expressed genuine concern about Rashford's dramatic dip in form this season, suggesting the 26-year-old might need to consider his options this summer.
'Something Isn't Right' - Neville's Concerning Assessment
Speaking on his popular podcast, Neville didn't hold back in his analysis of Rashford's situation. "There's something that's not right with him," Neville stated. "He's not right and it's not just a case of him not playing well, he doesn't look happy."
The observation carries significant weight given Neville's deep understanding of the pressures that come with wearing the famous red shirt and his previous staunch defence of the academy graduate.
PSG Waiting in the Wings as Transfer Interest Grows
French giants Paris Saint-Germain are monitoring developments closely, with the Ligue 1 champions viewing Rashford as a potential replacement for the departing Kylian Mbappé. This isn't the first time PSG have shown interest, having previously made approaches for the England international.
While United have previously resisted selling their homegrown star, this summer could represent a pivotal moment in Rashford's career as the club undergoes significant structural changes under new minority owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe.
A Season of Struggle After Career-Best Campaign
The contrast between this season and the last couldn't be more stark. After scoring a career-high 30 Premier League goals last campaign, Rashford has managed just eight this term, with his overall performances drawing criticism from fans and pundits alike.
Neville highlighted the dramatic turnaround: "We know there's a great player in there, but he's having a really poor season. He's gone from a career-best year to one of his most difficult."
The Crucial Summer Decision Ahead
With new technical director Jason Wilcox now in place and Omar Berrada arriving as CEO this summer, United face a monumental decision regarding one of their most valuable assets.
Neville stopped short of outright advocating for a sale but made it clear that serious consideration must be given to what's best for both player and club. "I'm not saying United should sell him, but if a big bid comes in, they'll have to think about it," he cautioned.
The coming months will prove decisive in determining whether Rashford's future lies at Old Trafford or if a fresh start abroad could reignite his faltering career.
