AC Milan do not want to waste further time, eyeing Kyle Walker instead of Marcus Rashford – Man United News And Transfer News

1

Manchester United have been trying to offload Marcus Rashford ever since the Mancunian revealed in an interview that he is ready for a new adventure.

Since that infamous interview, Ruben Amorim has not afforded a single minute of action to him with INEOS backing the head coach and open to moving him on as they seek pure profit to steer clear of PSR concerns.

However, United’s asking price coupled with the Englishman’s humongous wages have meant no permanent offers have arrived as of yet.

A few days ago, it seemed like AC Milan were in pole position to land the 27-year-old with a meeting scheduled between the club and the player’s agent.

However, as relayed by The Peoples Person, Rashford’s heart is set on a move to Barcelona with Hansi Flick a big admirer of the England international’s talents.

And with an answer from the United No 10’s camp not forthcoming, the Serie A giants have seemingly given up on the Carrington graduate and are eyeing Manchester City’s Kyle Walker on loan instead.

As per Serie A regulations, Italian clubs can only sign one British player per year and the Rossoneri are not willing to waste further time chasing the United star as per L’Equipe and are instead focusing on bringing the City fullback on loan to the San Siro.

“Faced with the Serie A regulations that only allow one British player per year in a squad, AC Milan will not be able to sign both Marcus Rashford (Manchester United) and Kyle Walker (Manchester City) this winter.

Milan have given up?

“Negotiations for the former are very difficult and the Italian leaders have decided not to waste any more time in order to bring in the latter.”

Apart from Milan and Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund are also interested in Rashford while there is also plenty of interest from within the Premier League.

Tottenham Hotspur, Chelsea, Arsenal and West Ham United have all been linked with a move for the versatile forward but INEOS have no plans of strengthening a direct domestic rival.

This leaves the Catalan giants in pole position if they can agree a wage packet with both the player and club and it will be interesting to see if they include an option to buy in the deal or not.
