  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  AC Milan have become the favourites to land the 27-year-old, having already opened talks over a potential loan transfer. Rashford has made clear that he is ready to leave United and the club are desperate to offload him. Rashford has not featured since December 12 and has been left out of recent squads by coach Ruben Amorim.

• DID YOU KNOW?

  Rashford has reportedly ruled out moving to Saudi Arabia and has rejected three offers from the Pro League, meaning a Serie A switch may be his only route out of Old Trafford.

  WHAT NEXT FOR RASHFORD?

  Rashford will hope for a quick resolution to his future as it appears there is no chance of him regaining his place as a star figure at United. He is unlikely to be involved when the club travels to take on Arsenal in the FA Cup third round on Sunday.
