According to Centre Devils, Napoli are big Rashford admirers of Rashford and want his services.
Meanwhile, recall that Osimhen has been seriously linked with Manchester United in recent weeks. This could provide a platform for all parties to get what they want.

Since both clubs have players they admirer on each end, they could settle for a swap deal. However, Osimhen is €20 million more expensive than Rashford. So Manchester United may have to add an extra fee to the deal to satisfy Napoli.
Nonetheless, it is unlikely that any deal will take place this month.
