Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan have inquired about a loan deal for Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford, according to reports.
The Athletic claims both clubs have made contact with United to understand the financial package it would take to lure Rashford away from Old Trafford.
United are believed to be prepared to sell or loan Rashford this month in a bid to reduce the wage bill for the player, who is believed to earn more than £325,000-a-week.
The 27-year-old recently said he was ‘ready for a new challenge’, hinting his time at United could be coming to an end.

The Sun also claimed it had held talks with Stellar Sports Agency – they helped facilitate Gareth Bale’s £86million move to Real Madrid from Tottenham Hotspur in 2013 – in a bid to speed up the transfer.
Rashford remains an enticing prospect for foreign clubs despite a largely miserable 18 months in which he has failed to replicate the form that saw him score 30 goals in all competitions during the 2022-23 season.
The player also made headlines for his off-field indiscretions and was accused of a lack of effort.
Dortmund are in good shape to sign United players in the January window after signing winger Jadon Sancho on loan this time last year.
Sancho performed well in the Bundesliga and thus earned a move to Chelsea over the summer.
