O'Hara: Rashford to Spurs, a dream or a disaster?

The former Spurs midfielder didn't mince words on Sky Sports' Tottenham summer special podcast. Rashford's Old Trafford future? Murky. A loan stint at Barcelona gave him 14 goals and 14 assists across 47 appearances. Not bad. Yet, Barcelona still waved him goodbye. Didn't want to make it permanent. The forward's 28 now. O'Hara sees a spark there. Believes Rashford's still got "plenty to offer." If only someone could light a fire under him. "If you get him at it with a point to prove, I just think he's still one of the best players around," O'Hara declared. A big 'if'. Especially with that eye-watering £350,000-a-week wage bill. A sum that could make even Levy choke.

Spurs' transfer window has been a saga. They've already blown £237m on six new signings this summer. Six. But the left-sided attacker? Still missing. De Zerbi's been dropping hints about a "bomba" signing. A big one. Names like Savinho and Cody Gakpo have floated around. Forget them, O'Hara says. Rashford's the man. Better than the rest. Michael Bridge over at Sky Sports News piped up too. Reckons De Zerbi pulling strings in recruitment, with the club's "clear direction," means a forward is inbound. Great. We're under three weeks from deadline day. Time's ticking. Expect a mad scramble.
