Arsenal news: Marcus Rashford transfer claim made as Bukayo Saka tipped for more goals

Arsenal supporters may have felt a little unnerved watching Saturday's action unfold.

It's been years since the club were in a position to genuinely challenge for the Champions League spots and two rivals for fourth spot - Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur - went toe-to-toe on Saturday evening.

The 3-2 win for United doesn't change Gunners strong grip on fourth place, as they have a four games in hand to make up two points on Ralf Rangnick's side.

On Sunday, they face an improving Leicester City at the Emirates Stadium, as they seek to add to their recent positive momentum.

Parlour makes Rashford claim

Former Arsenal hero Ray Parlour believes that Marcus Rashford may be an ideal signing for the Gunners this summer.

"Certainly Arsenal, I would love him to come to Arsenal... that’s the position [centre-forward] they've got to look at in the summer, that is vital for Arsenal," he said. "Rashford, if he was available... I'm sure Arsenal would definitely be interested."

Speculation is building around Rashford at Old Trafford, as the forward has been hopelessly out of form in recent weeks.

Tom Blow looked at how possibly signing Rashford could help Arsenal gain some revenge on United for what happened a decade ago come the summer.

Saka tipped for more success

Bukayo Saka has been one of Arsenal's star men in the Premier League this season and he's been backed to find the net again against Leicester on Sunday.

The 20-year-old has accumulated an impressive eight goals and five assists in the 2021-22 Premier League, including one of each in last week's 3-2 win at Watford.

Previewing the meeting with the Foxes at the Emirates Stadium from a betting perspective, Alex Hankin suggested Saka represented good value to add to his goalscoring tally.

"Everything’s coming up roses for the likes of young Norway captain Martin Odegaard and Saka," he said. "The England star is worth an ‘anytime scorer’ bet today at 5/2 (Paddy) on his stats."
