The reason as to why AC Milan will not be able to sign both Marcus Rashford and Kyle Walker on loan has been revealed. The Italian giants are the frontrunners to sign the Man United and Man City stars during the January window - as both players look for a Manchester exit.

Milan are clear favourites for Walker's signature at this stage and are poised to make a formal offer for the City captain over the coming hours. Meanwhile, Milan's interest in Rashford was revealed earlier this month, after the forward admitted he could seek a new challenge away from Man United.

However, the club will have to make a decision over which England star they want to bring in, due to some Serie A registration rules. The club have just one spot remaining in their squad for a British player following a change in regulations after Brexit.
AC Milan are keen on signing both Kyle Walker (left) and Marcus Rashford (right) in January. However, the recent Italian Super Cup champions will have to pick between the two stars. Restrictions say Italian teams can only bring in two non-EU squad members each year, with one bonus English or Albanian ace permitted.
Milan signed Serbian international Strahinja Pavlovic and Brazil star Emerson Royal in the summer to fill their two non-EU slots. Walker was left out of City's squad for their 8-0 FA Cup win over Salford City and did not take part in training Sunday. Milan consultant Zlatan Ibrahimovic has played a pivotal role in negotiations and the Italian club are hopeful of reaching accord with City ahead of rival competition coming to the fore.
