Bilic: No way West Ham will get Rashford

The West Ham boss dreads the upcoming period but is resigned to the process as a football manager, while stating that his side stand no chance for the Manchester United starlet.

Slaven Bilic has ruled out the idea of West Ham signing Marcus Rashford from Manchester United in January, adding he is not looking forward to dealing with the myriad of agents calling him in January to offer him their client's services.

The Hammers are set to let Simone Zaza return to Juventus and have been associated with the struggling Manchester United starlet, who has found game time hard to come by at Old Trafford.

The Premier League relegation battlers have also been linked to a host of other names when the transfer window opens, including Patrice Evra and Jermain Defoe.

However, Bilic says a lot of the news is made up by agents hawking their clients about to clubs and the media, confessing that he has grown weary of the process.

"No way," he told reporters when asked about the possibility of signing the United forward.

"Rashford is very valuable for Manchester United. There's no way. There's no way to get him. They have many games, four competitions. He's playing. So no way. No way.
