Having wrapped up the Italian Super Cup in the best possible way, the Rossoneri's transfer market is also starting to heat up. Before the Riyadh derby, Milan's senior advisor Zlatan Ibrahimovic assured that "something will happen," and indeed, in recent hours, the name of Marcus Rashford, a 27-year-old English forward who has fallen out of favor at Manchester United, has been increasingly linked to Milan.
According to information gathered by the editorial staff of MilanNews.it, the Rossoneri club has identified the English player as their top target for the winter transfer window.
What is Manchester United's stance regarding Rashford?
Manchester United no longer sees the player as part of their plans and would be open to a loan deal, though the financial feasibility of the operation, particularly regarding his salary, would need to be assessed.
The forward is a player appreciated by Sergio Conceição: the new Rossoneri coach values his tactical versatility.
The Englishman can operate across the entire attacking front— as a second striker, on the wing, or even as a center forward. For a tactician like the Portuguese manager, he would be a great asset.
