Glen Johnson believes ‘unstoppable’ Manchester United star Marcus Rashford will be interested in joining Real Madrid.

According to Johnson, Rashford will be lying if he says he isn’t interested in joining Real Madrid.

“Well it’s a massive void, let’s put it that way,” said former Chelsea and Liverpool defender Johnson when asked how best Real Madrid could replace Benzema.

“I’m a massive fan of Rashford and when he presses and he’s at his best, then he’s unstoppable. I have no doubt that Real Madrid would want to sign him if he’s going to go for less than he should, if his deal’s not too far away from expiring.

“Will he be good enough to fill the shoes of Benzema? We won’t know that until he’s playing in the Champions League week in, week out for them. He certainly has the potential to.”

On whether Rashford would consider leaving his boyhood club, Johnson added: “Real Madrid 100%. It’s a galactico club, you live in Madrid and wherever he goes he will be paid well enough.

“He doesn’t need to think about that. Real Madrid will be competing for La Liga, they’ll go deep in the Champions League and you can live in the sun, so for me it’s a no brainer.

“When teams like PSG and Real Madrid want you, then 100% you’d be interested in them.

“Obviously he’s from Manchester and is already at a big football club, but if any footballer told you that they weren’t interested in even having a chat with a club like Real Madrid, they’ll be lying.

“He may not say it but he will be interested.”
