Manchester United are reportedly interested in doing an ambitious swap deal involving Marcus Rashford.
With the January transfer window now open, clubs around the globe will be looking for opportunities to add to their playing squad.
In terms of United, the big talking point will be Rashford's future after his revealing interview with Henry Winter last month.
On the back of being omitted by Ruben Amorim for the Manchester derby, Rashford declared his wish to seek a new challenge.

The 27-year-old was directly asked whether he would be staying or leaving. He replied: "For me, personally, I think I'm ready for a new challenge and the next steps."
Since then, Rashford has not played a single minute for the Red Devils as they embarked on a four-match losing streak.
Clubs in the Saudi Pro League, the MLS and around Europe have since been linked with a move for the Englishman.
Could Manchester United use Marcus Rashford in a swap deal to land a top target?
It has been claimed that Rashford could potentially be used in a swap deal for United to land Napoli striker Victor Osimhen.

As reported by The Sun, Napoli boss Antonio Conte is keen on working with Rashford, which could open the door for Osimhen to move to Old Trafford with Amorim interested in adding more quality to his squad.
The Nigerian is currently on loan at Turkish Super Lig side Galatasaray but has a clause in his deal that allows him to move clubs permanently this month.
Since moving to Napoli in 2020, Osimhen has netted 65 goals in 108 Serie A appearances.
Due to his impressive numbers in Italy, the striker has been linked with a move to United and other Premier League clubs in recent years.

With Napoli's apparent interest in Rashford, United could use him in an offer to finally sign Osimhen.
When asked about the Premier League last year, Osimhen told Corriere Della Sera: "I think it is an ambition of all players. And who knows, one day.
"Right now, I assure you, it doesn't even cross my mind. It would distract me from a beautiful season. [I'm thinking of] Only Napoli."
United will be back in Premier League action this weekend when they take on rivals Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.
