Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s stance on AC Milan signing Marcus Rashford revealed
AC Milan will not be able to pay Marcus Rashford’s full wage if they complete a loan deal for the Man United outcast, sources have told Football Insider.
The Italian side have been linked with a potential swoop for the 27-year-old and are in the market for attacking reinforcements.
Milan have been linked with Randal Kolo Muani of Paris Saint-Germain but could turn their attentions to Rashford if they miss out on the Frenchman’s signature.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic is sporting director at the club and is well-versed on the Englishman’s talents having played alongside him at United.
Meanwhile, Rashford is likely to be keen on the move with the chance to challenge for silverware and play in the Champions League a big attraction.
The Red Devils are keen for any suitors to cover his full wage but it is believed they could accept a cut-price deal if there are no other options for Rashford.
