Marcus Rashford's agent holds Borussia Dortmund talks as Bundesliga side eye loan deal for struggling Man Utd attacker

Rashford has been exiled by Ruben Amorim in recent weeks and has not played for United in the Premier League since December 7. He has confirmed that he wants to take on a new challenge and Sky Germany reports that Dortmund are interested in striking a loan deal.

Dortmund accept that any deal for Rashford is complicated by his huge wages. He would have to take a pay cut if he were to move to Germany and, as such, Dortmund have discussed the potential of a loan without an option or obligation to buy. The forward's camp have held discussions with the Bundesliga giants but AC Milan are ahead of them in the race to secure his signature.

Rashford has struggled for form this season and has only scored four goals across 15 games in the league. Last term, he netted seven league goals.

United play Southampton in midweek before a weekend clash with Brighton. It remains to be seen if Rashford will be involved in the matchday squads for those games.
