Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly not planning to make a move for Manchester United attacker Marcus Rashford during this summer's transfer window.
The French champions are currently preparing for Kylian Mbappe's departure, with the France international widely expected to join Real Madrid on a free transfer at the end of the campaign.
There have been suggestions that PSG are keen on Rashford, with the capital outfit said to have a long-term interest in the England international, who has struggled to show his best form during the 2023-24 season.
However, the Red Devils academy product is not currently on PSG's radar, according to French football journalist Julien Laurens.
"At the moment, Rashford is not in the shortlist that PSG have drawn up," Laurens told talkSPORT. "They had a plan in case Kylian was leaving.
"Now that he is leaving, they can activate the plan. On the plan you find Bruno Guimaraes and Bernardo Silva from the Premier League and [Victor] Osimhen and [Rafael] Leao from Serie A.
"Also a young defender from France, Leny Yoro who's only 18 but who is maybe the most gifted player of his generation that a lot of English clubs are also following. Right now, this is the shortlist. Ideally then could sign two of those five, maybe one, maybe three. It depends on a lot of things.
"Rashford is not there [on the list]. He might be there, remember last summer and the summer before his brother met with Nasser Al-Khelaifi the PSG chairman but that was more to please Mbappe because he wanted to play with Rashford they are good friends.
"Now that Kylian is leaving, I'm not so sure how relevant the Rashford link is."
Rashford signed a lucrative new contract at Man United last summer off the back of an excellent 2022-23 campaign, but the 26-year-old's form has dropped off this season.
The Englishman has only managed six goals and six assists in 33 appearances for the Red Devils, and he has often cut a frustrated figure for the club this season.
Rashford has managed four goals in his last eight Premier League matches, though, including a strike against Manchester City in the Manchester derby on Sunday afternoon.
The forward's relationship with head coach Erik ten Hag is said to have suffered since an incident in January, with Rashford visiting a nightclub in Dublin on two separate evenings and then calling in sick for training before his side's FA Cup clash with Newport County.
Rashford, who is with the Man United squad preparing for Saturday's Premier League clash with Everton, released an emotional statement last week responding to the recent criticism of him. body check tags ::
