The Man Utd hitman sensationally revealed last month that he’s looking for a “new challenge”.

Rashford was immediately linked with several clubs abroad, including Paris Saint-Germain and Italian duo AC Milan and Juventus.

But Prem teams are now said to also be interested in him.

The Athletic claim “Premier League suitors are weighing up” a winter bid for the wantaway striker.

They also claim United’s domestic rivals will have to battle German giants Borussia Dortmund to land the England international.

Rashford, 27, stunned the Old Trafford faithful by revealing his intention to leave the club in an unauthorised interview.

The striker dropped the bombshell after being exiled by new Red Devils gaffer Ruben Amorim.

He told journalist Henry Winter: “For me, personally, I think I’m ready for a new challenge and the next steps.

“When I leave it’s going to be, ‘No hard feelings.’

“You’re not going to have any negative comments from me about Manchester United. That’s me as a person.

“If I know that a situation is already bad I’m not going to make it worse.

“I’ve seen how other players have left in the past and I don’t want to be that person.

“When I leave, I’ll make a statement, and it will be from me.”

Amorim bears no ill will towards Rashford but believes his stunning interview was ill-advised.

He told Sky Sports: “It is a hard situation.

“I understand these players have a lot of people around them, making choices that are not the first idea from the player.

“They chose to do the interview as it is not just Marcus.”

The Portuguese added: “At the moment I’m focused on improving Marcus.

“We need a talented guy like Marcus.

“I forget the interview now and see what I see on the pitch.”

United will be back in action on Sunday, travelling to the Emirates to take on Arsenal in their FA Cup third-round clash.
