Borussia Dortmund in Talks Over Loan Move for Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford
Borussia Dortmund have reportedly entered into talks with Marcus Rashford’s camp regarding a potential loan move in January. The Manchester United forward, currently exiled from the first team under manager Ruben Amorim, has not featured for the club in the Premier League since December 7 and is said to be seeking a new challenge.
Dortmund, who are in the market for attacking reinforcements, are considering a loan deal for Rashford, although they are aware of the complexities surrounding such a move. The forward’s hefty wages pose a significant obstacle, and for a move to take place, Rashford would likely need to take a pay cut.
Sky Germany has reported that while Dortmund are keen to secure a loan deal without an option or obligation to buy, AC Milan is currently leading the race to sign Rashford. Despite his struggles this season, where he has managed just four goals in 15 Premier League appearances, the 26-year-old’s potential is still highly regarded across Europe.
Last season, Rashford netted seven league goals, but his form has faltered this term. As Dortmund explores the possibility of bringing him to the Bundesliga, it remains to be seen whether Manchester United will allow the transfer to materialize.
United’s upcoming fixtures include a Premier League match against Southampton, followed by a weekend clash with Brighton. It is uncertain whether Rashford will be part of the matchday squad for those games. The January transfer window is shaping up to be an eventful one, with Rashford’s future set to be a key talking point.
