Paris Saint-Germain have emerged as the frontrunners to sign Marcus Rashford and the French giants have had their odds slashed to sign the Manchester United forward.

Luis Enrique's side had already been charting among the main favourites to land the 27-year-old but, following bombshell comments on his future, they have been big movers from 4/1 to 5/2 with the bookies. Prior to the dramatic 2-1 win over Manchester City on Sunday afternoon, the headlines surrounded Rashford's omission from the matchday squad to face United's neighbours.

In the days after, the forward spoke to Henry Winter where he dropped the clearest hint yet on his future at Old Trafford. He said: "For me, personally, I think I'm ready for a new challenge and the next steps."

United's Premier League rivals, Arsenal, have also emerged as possible candidates to end his association with his boyhood club. During the summer transfer window, the Gunners were the subject of speculation over a potential move across the country to the capital.

Rashford will have three years remaining on his deal at the Theatre of Dreams at the end of the season, while new head coach, Ruben Amorim, has discussed where the England international's future lies.

"We have here a new challenge. It's a tough one, for me it's the biggest challenge in football, because we are in a difficult situation and I already said this is one of the biggest clubs in the world," said the Portuguese tactician.

"This is a really new challenge and the biggest one. I really hope all my players are ready for this new challenge. No, [I haven't spoken to Rashford] yet. It was yesterday, I gave the day off to the lads, so he's our player, and he's ready for the next game."

Amorim went on: "I spoke with a lot of players, individually, and during training. What I want is to take the best stuff of Marcus Rashford as the player so I don't talk about the future, I just talk about the present.

"I want the best of each one of them and that's the key point for me. I just want to win and to help the team be better. We are better with Marcus Rashford, that is simple and we will try different things to push Marcus to the best levels he showed in the past. And that's all.

"Of course [Amorim would want Rashford to stay], because this kind of club needs big talent and he's a big talent. So he just needs to perform at the highest level and that's my focus. I just want to help Marcus."
