Man United ‘approach’ Marcus Rashford replacement as January deal gets green light

The January transfer window is a fortnight away from opening – and Manchester United face a mammoth month following Ruben Amorim‘s first few weeks in charge.

Doubts about the futures of Alejandro Garnacho and, particularly, Marcus Rashford have arisen after both did not make the matchday squad for Sunday’s Manchester derby triumph. The coach’s decision follows fresh speculation about the latter’s future.

United did not rule out Rashford leaving during the summer transfer window and Paris Saint-Germain, previously, expressed interest in signing the player last year. However, sanctioning any transfer would probably necessitate a replacement – particularly as Amorim’s squad has limited forward options.

Chelsea attempted to sign Osimhen on transfer deadline day this summer, but no deal materialised. In turn, the Nigeria international went on loan to Galatasaray instead.

He remains under contract at Napoli, though, and there is an expectation that interest will materialise from their rivals, Juventus, who are preparing to replace Dusan Vlahovic. It is, reportedly, increasingly believed that they are Osimhen’s preference next year.
