Borussia Dortmund is reportedly showing increased interest in Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford, as indicated by recent reports from Germany. With the arrival of new head coach Ruben Amorim at Manchester United, Rashford has found himself with fewer opportunities, making him a potential candidate for transfer.
Rashford's potential reason to leave Manchester United
He has not featured in any of the Red Devils’ last seven matches, and several European clubs are actively pursuing him. Borussia Dortmund, AC Milan, Napoli, Juventus, Barcelona, and AS Monaco are all showing interest in the England international, for whom Manchester United is demanding £50 million.
Rashford's current asking price, combined with his £325,000-a-week wages, acts as a roadblock for potential suitors. However, the Premier League club is hopeful that he could be on the move in the January transfer window, possibly on loan.

Plettenberg emphasises that discussions have resumed and highlights that Italian giants Milan are showing serious interest in the player as well.
