The perfect club for Marcus Rashford to join has been found after the Manchester United forward admitted that he was ready to take on a new challenge.
Having joined United in 2005 at the age of seven, Rashford has spent his life playing for the Red Devils, developing into a key player in the club’s recent history.
But, just days after being dropped for the Manchester derby by new manager Ruben Amorim, the 27-year-old admitted that he was ready to move on from United and accept a new challenge elsewhere, sparking debate online on what could be next.
And there is one club that SPORTbible are convinced would be the perfect next step for the Englishman if he is to leave United in the near future.
Should Rashford decide to move away from Old Trafford, a transfer abroad would almost certainly be the best idea as it would allow him to escape the scrutiny of English fans and media and build himself back up to his best.
With that in mind, a move to Italy to join former teammate Scott McTominay at Napoli could be an ideal move, as Rashford could once again work alongside a close friend who has been thriving after leaving United over the summer to join the Serie A side.
And McTominay isn’t the only ex-teammate that Rashford would once again play alongside should he move to Napoli, as he would be reunited with striker Romelu Lukaku after the Belgian also joined The Blues in August.

Although there are yet to be any reports linking the English forward to Napoli, it definitely feels like a move that could happen after manager Antonio Conte previously praised Rashford.
“It’s very difficult to find anyone like him [Rashford] in England. That’s the one player now who has shown he is strong physically, fast technically and a good player,” explained the Italian in 2017, later describing him as an “important player”.
And, should Napoli be interested in Rashford, it is highly likely that the Premier League club would be interested, particularly if they could negotiate a swap deal including either Victor Osimhen or Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who have both been linked with a move to Old Trafford in recent months.
