is not ready to become Arsenal’s leading striker, according to former forward Tony Cascarino.
The 24-year-old is understood to be considering his future at after growing frustrated with his lack of regular football under .
Reports over the weekend claim that Arsenal are keeping tabs on Rashford’s situation at Old Trafford and are considering a move at the end of the season.
Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid are also reportedly monitoring Rashford ahead of a potential deal this summer.
But Cascarino believes Rashford, who has scored five goals in 26 appearances this season, is not clinical enough to lead Arsenal’s attack.
‘To be a natural striker, and this is something I learned along the way and I got better at as I got older, so Marcus could become better, because there’s no reason why someone can’t improve, you have to be very, very clinical,’ Cascarino told talkSPORT.
‘You have to punish because, if you’re going to a club like , they’re looking to progress and be a team, so you have to be clinical in front of goal.
‘I joked and sometimes called Lacazette ‘Lack a finish’, which is a bit harsh because I think he’s a decent player, but he’s not being clinical enough for Arsenal.
‘They’ve needed that, for him to be punishing teams, and I don’t think Marcus is ready to do that at Arsenal.’
