Rashford earns €14m per season and according to Tuttosport, he’s ready to take a pay cut to join the Rossoneri this month.

However, both Tuttosport and Corriere dello Sport claim that Milan need Manchester United to pay part of the player’s wages to complete an initial loan transfer this month.

The Rossoneri are also working to make room for Rashford by selling one of their wingers. Samuel Chukwueze has been linked with a move to Aston Villa, while Noah Okafor has attracted interest from RB Leipzig.

According to Corriere dello Sport, negotiations for Okafor’s sale are ‘alive’ as the two clubs discuss a loan deal with an option to buy for €15m.
