Marcus Rashford sends Scott McTominay subtle Man United to Napoli transfer hint
Manchester United star Marcus Rashford has been linked with a move to Italy in the January transfer window with AC Milan and Napoli reportedly interested.
A move to one of Europe's top five divisions is understood to be preferred by the 27-year-old after he rejected three clubs in Saudi Arabia. Having already stated his desire to leave United, Rashford hasn't played under Ruben Amorim since the 2-1 win over Viktoria Plzen in December.
Milan have seemed to be the frontrunners to land the England international for some time but rules in Serie A mean they are only allowed to register more than one non-EU player per year. Manchester City's Kyle Walker is also on their radar with recent reports suggesting the defender is their preferred target.

Napoli are another team showing interest with Antonio Conte keen to replace Khvicha Kvaratskhelia after his move to Paris Saint-Germain. The Italian side are also trying to sign Alejandro Garnacho.
A move to the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium would see Rashford reunite with Scott McTominay. The Scotland international sealed a £25million move to Italy in the summer and is enjoying a terrific season.
On Saturday, McTominay scored, as well as former United striker Romelu Lukaku, against title rivals Atalanta in a thrilling 3-2 win at Gewis Stadium. McTominay slotted home to put Conte's men 2-1 ahead before Lukaku bagged the winner in the 78th minute.
It means Gli Azzurri are six points clear of Scudetto holders Inter at the top of the Serie A table. After the game, McTominay took to Instagram to thank supporters and Rashford was one of 100,000+ users to like the post.
"A very important victory!!! Goodnight Naples," the midfielder wrote on social media. Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot both also liked the post. It could be nothing but it has left some Napoli supporters excited of what could happen this month.
