Former Aston Villa and Liverpool attacker Stan Collymore has urged Manchester United attacker Marcus Rashford to sign for Tottenham.
The England international has been in the news for all the wrong reasons after he was spotted in a nightclub in Belfast last week.
Although Rashford made a goal scoring return to the team in United’s win against Wolves, the speculation about him and his future at the club is not going to end any time soon.
While speaking to CaughtOffside, Collymore suggested that Rashford needs a stable environment at the club and he needs to play for a manager who has control over the club and spends quality time with him.
“I know there has been a lot of chatter about Arsenal, and they may well be the ideal fit for him,” he said in an exclusive interview.
“For me, it’s really simple — Rashford needs to be at a club where the manager is stable and not going anywhere anytime soon. He needs a manager, who has a lot of control at a club, spends some quality time with him and gets inside his head to figure out exactly how to get the best out of him. If he can find that in Mikel Arteta, so be it but I actually think Ange Postecoglou would do wonders for him.
Postecoglou would say to Rashford ‘Mate, there’s no pressure, just go out and attack like you did when you were a kid’. He would take the weight of the world off his shoulders and probably help him rediscover his love for the game.
“Let’s be honest as well, I know fans are quick to take the mick but Spurs are a massive club, and there’s no doubt about it, they are heading in the right direction again.”
The Man United star has been linked with moves away from the club after his off the field shenanigans. French champions PSG and Premier League rivals Arsenal have been the two clubs paired with him in the last week.
Rashford showed his importance to United with an impressive performance against Wolves. The way he came back and scored on his return showed that he knows how to keep his critics silent.
