Marcus Rashford continues to be one of the most intriguing transfer prospects of the current window, with the longtime Manchester United man seemingly on the way out of Old Trafford on a loan basis.
Rashford reportedly has a number of potential suitors within the Premier League and throughout Europe, as the 27-year-old is only two years removed from a 30-goal campaign with the Red Devils.
Clubs like AC Milan and West Ham United have emerged in recent days as possible landing spots for Rashford, but Emmanuel Petit suggests Arsenal as another side that could be in for the attacker.

Speaking to DisCasino, former Gunner Petit made a case for Rashford to join his old club, pointing to manager Mikel Arteta's ability to get the best out of players as a factor that could entice the Man United stalwart to North London.
"Marcus Rashford would be an interesting signing for Arsenal," Petit said. "I'm very frustrated with Gabriel Martinelli's performances at the moment, he's very inconsistent and it's annoying to watch. He's been like a ghost on the pitch.
"Competition for a spot in the XI is important for Arsenal, look at Liverpool's bench, the quality they have is amazing. I know Nico Williams has been linked [to Arsenal], but I'm told he'll never come to the Premier League if he leaves Athletic Bilbao, he'd only go to Barcelona. The Raheem Sterling gamble has not worked.
"Rashford, if he's in the team and playing football in a good environment with a manager who trusts him, you will see the best of him. Is that manager Mikel Arteta? If I'm him, I would definitely have an eye on that situation at Manchester United. He's not the same player from two years ago, but we all know the level he can reach, quality like that doesn't just disappear."
