King confirmed what Ange thinks about Tottenham transfer pursuit of Marcus Rashford

Tottenham Hotspur have recently been linked with a potential move for Manchester United star Marcus Rashford during the January transfer window.

According to reports, Ange Postecoglou’s side has joined the race to secure the services of the forward, who appears to be seeking a move away from Old Trafford.

However, any deal will largely hinge on Manchester United’s willingness to cover a significant portion of Rashford’s reported £325,000-a-week wages, which complicates the possibility of an agreement.

Former Spurs scout Bryan King has expressed doubts about the prospect of Rashford joining Tottenham. Speaking exclusively to Tottenham News, King questioned whether Postecoglou would welcome the England international, citing concerns over the baggage Rashford might bring.

King acknowledged the forward’s quality as a player but emphasized the challenges associated with his high wages and current situation at Manchester United. He also expressed uncertainty about where Rashford would fit into Tottenham’s plans, given their existing squad dynamics.

Despite Rashford’s undeniable talent, a move to Tottenham seems improbable due to financial considerations and the unlikelihood of Manchester United subsidizing his wages for a transfer to a direct rival.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy and the club’s management may need to shift their focus to other targets in the market. One name that has gained traction as an alternative is Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani.

The Frenchman has been linked with Tottenham in recent reports and could be a viable option for bolstering the club’s attacking lineup.

Kolo Muani’s profile aligns with Tottenham’s needs, offering pace, versatility, and proven goal-scoring ability. With revenues continuing to rise in North London, Spurs are well-positioned to make a statement signing during this transfer window.

Fans will undoubtedly hope that the club can secure a high-profile addition to strengthen their squad and maintain their competitiveness under Postecoglou’s leadership.
