Written by: Brad Walker

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim's latest comments look to be the final nail in the coffin for Red Devils forward Marcus Rashford.

The former England international has not featured since December, with Amorim citing poor attitudes in training and his personal life as reasons for his absence. 

A move away from Old Trafford looks to be on the cards before the end of the winter transfer window on February 3rd, but who is most likely to secure Rashford's signature?

Odds Now's Brad Walker (@brad_TWalker) takes a look at the current market leaders.

Marcus Rashford next club betting odds

Barcelona - 11/10

The Catalan giants have reportedly expressed an interest in taking Rashford on loan for the rest of the season, but are struggling to make room for his salary. 

Barcelona's recent struggle in registering players has also been well-documented, though a temporary solution has been reached in that regard for now. 

Sky Sports also report that Rashford is willing to take a pay cut in order to facilitate a move to the Camp Nou.

Nevertheless, the La Liga club are yet to make a formal approach for the 27-year-old but that could change between now and the transfer deadline.

Borussia Dortmund - 5/2

Rashford's wage requirements are also a reported stumbling block for Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund.

Sky Sports reported that 'BVB' had decided to actively pursue a deal for the forward, though the cost of the deal was viewed as 'being above Dortmund's means'. 

The German side do have a positive relationship with United, having negotiated a loan deal for Jadon Sancho midway through last season, having reportedly agreed to pay around 40% of Sancho's wages.

However, it remains to be seen whether a similar setup would be suitable this time around, particularly given United's pressing need to reduce salary expenditure in order to comply with the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules.

Arsenal - 5/1

Arsenal's need for reinforcements in forward areas speaks for itself. 

The Gunners have struggled to get over the line in several matches due to a poor performance in front of goal this season, with the club's fan base clamouring for an attacking signing between now and February 3rd. 

Whether Rashford fits the bill for Mikel Arteta, who already has options in Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard down the left-hand side, remains to be seen. 

Nevertheless, Rashford has proven his ability to score goals in the top-flight down the years and would be a valuable asset for Arsenal's title push providing he was able to find some of his old form.

AC Milan - 6/1

AC Milan initially emerged as one of the favourites to sign Rashford earlier this window, only to then turn their attention to signing Manchester City right-back Kyle Walker. 

The Rossoneri have since announced the signing of Walker on loan, raising the question of whether they will return to add another Englishman to their ranks.

Sky Sports reported Rashford's agent had travelled to Italy for talks with the Serie A giants earlier this month, but nothing concrete has yet developed. 

Portuguese winger Rafael Leao also occupies Rashford's favourited position down the left-hand side, so it is unclear where he would feature should he put pen to paper at the San Siro. 

Brad Walker's best bet for Marcus Rashford's next club

Out of all the options discussed, a move to Barcelona still appears the most likely at the time of writing and that is reflected in the current odds on offer. 

The Catalans have been breathless in the final third at times this season, but could still do with some strengthening down the left flank. 

Rashford's team will surely want assurances about the financial stability at the club given the recent registration debacle with Dani Olmo and Pau Victor, but the fact he's reportedly willing to take a paycut to make the move happen is a positive sign for those at the Nou Camp helm. 

Ultimately, a fresh start looks to be in the benefit of all parties here, and a Marcus Rashford who is back to his best will slot right in next to the likes of Raphinha and Robert Lewandowksi in the Barcelona frontline.
