Marcus Rashford would have to follow a very strict set of rules if he joins Borussia Dortmund this summer following reports linking him to the German club.
Rashford has been cast aside by Ruben Amorim following disciplinary issues, and United are open to letting the 27-year-old leave the club this month.
AC Milan and Juventus are reportedly “weighing up” an attempt to potentially recruit the England international, but according to The Athletic, Borussia Dortmund have entered the frame.

David Ornstein claims that Borussia Dortmund are “considering a move” to sign the player “on loan” from Manchester United in the January transfer window.
This comes after Rashford gave a bombshell interview to Henry Winter in December explaining he is ready for a new challenge.
"When I leave it's going to be ‘no hard feelings’," he told Winter.

The move to the Bundesliga could prove to be tempting for Rashford, with former United teammate Jadon Sancho successfully reviving his career with the club last season.
However, Rashford would have to be on his best behavior if he makes the switch as a leaked fine list from earlier in the season shows just how brutal life at Dortmund can be.
According to German publication Bild, the list leaked online includes fining players €100 (£83) for every minute they are late to scheduled events, such as training, physio sessions, and meals.
This will then rise to €3,000 (£2,499) if a player is late on a matchday, and €5,000 (£4,166) should they completely miss a scheduled club event.

Meanwhile, one of the less serious crimes seems to be failing to show up for a weighing session, with this demanding a €250 (£208) payment, the same cost as wearing incorrect clothing.
Dortmund also put a lot of importance on player-fan relations, with team members reportedly fined €2,000 (£1,666) if they fail to sign autograph cards, and €500 (£416) for refusing to sign shirts for fans.
Rashford would be expected to make an instant impact with Dortmund languishing at 6th in the Bundesliga table, 10 points off Bayern Munich at the summit.
