Marcus Rashford’s Manchester United departure appears inevitable, but it remains to be seen whether or not Arsenal revive their transfer interest. The Gunners remain keen to strengthen their forward line but are likely to keep their powder dry until the summer.

Scoring goals has been an issue so far this season with Mikel Arteta increasingly reliant on the output of Bukayo Saka. Kai Havertz has struggled to replicate last season’s form and although Gabriel Jesus’ hat-trick in last night’s Carabao Cup win over Crystal Palace gave cause for optimism, it remains to be seen whether or not he can replicate that form in the Premier League.

Mikel Arteta dismissed suggestions last week that Jesus would be sold in January but attacking reinforcements represent an ever increasing priority. The Gunners maintain interest in RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko who opted to stay with the Bundesliga club in the summer despite serious interest from a number of Premier League clubs.
Arsenal remain huge admirers of Alexander Isak but it will take a huge fee to prise the Sweden international from St James’ Park. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video.
Up Next. Viktor Gyokeres is also on Arteta’s radar but the club hold several reservations over a player who will soon turn 27 and failed to cut it during his previous spell in England. Arsenal are understood to have held tentative interest in Rashford recently but according to MailSport currently have no plans to enter the running to sign a player who is on his way out of Old Trafford.
