West Ham United are very unlikely to sign Marcus Rashford from Manchester United in the winter transfer window, according to ExWHUEmployee.

The Hammers' insider revealed on his personal X account (9 January) that the odds of the 27-year-old moving to the London Stadium are very low.

"I have said it’s very unlikely," he shared.

West Ham to sign Marcus Rashford from Manchester United?

If the East London outfit were able to acquire Rashford's services in January, it would undoubtedly be a coup, considering the quality of teams that want him.

While the 27-year-old has struggled for form in Manchester over the last few months, he still possesses immense quality.

It wouldn't be surprising to see the Englishman prefer moving to a top side outside the Premier League in the coming weeks.

Graham Potter brings a lot of experience and pedigree with him, and the supporters will certainly appreciate his modern style of play.

The 49-year-old didn't have the best of stints at Chelsea, but his work at Brighton can't be overlooked.

Rashford might be tempted to link up with Potter at the Irons, although that feels like a far-fetched idea.

The East London outfit could do with reinforcements in attack, but they need to be more realistic about the players they can approach.
