Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford's agent and his brother have reportedly flown to Italy on Tuesday to hold talks with AC Milan over a sensational January loan move.
Bet Football on Bet365AC Milan made Marcus Rashford their primary forward target in the January transfer window after the forward expressed that he might be seeking a new challenge away from Manchester United. Rashford's brother and agent, Dwaine Maynard, was in Milan on Tuesday for discussions with the newly crowned winners of the Italian Super Cup.
According to The Athletic, the deal is expected to be a loan agreement, with Manchester United needing to cover a significant portion of his £350,000-a-week wages. However, finalizing a loan could be challenging, as AC Milan already has a strong lineup of attacking options, including Rafael Leão, Christian Pulisic, and Tammy Abraham.
It was earlier reported by our expert analysis in the article below that Manchester United are considering swapping Marcus Rashford for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.
Rashford's former Man United teammate Zlatan Ibrahimovic could play a significant role in bringing the forward to AC Milan, with the 43-year-old serving as a senior adviser to the club's ownership.
The forward has not played for Manchester United since being dropped by the new United manager, Ruben Amorim, after the Viktoria Plzen match in the Europa League on December 12. Since then Rashford has been linked with several clubs, including Borussia Dortmund and Juventus, who have both shown interest in the 27-year-old. Although Saudi clubs have approached Rashford, he has rejected these offers, expressing no interest in a move to the Middle East.
