Reports suggest that Marcus Rashford has frustrated his Manchester United teammates by expressing his desire to leave the club.
Although he’s an academy graduate, Rashford has been notably absent from Ruben Amorim’s squad for the past three matches.
There were rumors that the Red Devils wouldn’t hinder the 27-year-old’s departure, potentially even before the January transfer window. ..Continue Reading
Now, it appears Rashford is determined to leave, though his substantial £350,000-per-week contract, which runs until 2028, might complicate matters.
Rashford made his feelings clear, saying: “For me, personally, I think I’m ready for a new challenge and the next steps,” and added, “When I leave it’s going to be ‘no hard feelings’. You’re not going to have any negative comments from me about Manchester United. That’s me as a person.”
However, Rashford’s open admission hasn’t sat well with everyone at United, with The Sun reporting that some squad members are unhappy, especially as it comes right after their significant victory over Pep Guardiola’s side, reports the Mirror.
Despite indications that Rashford may leave Old Trafford, Amorim has consistently shown his support for the player.
Although Rashford has been left out of recent matches, the former Sporting CP manager has suggested that he would prefer for Rashford to stay with the team.
Amorim commented: “This kind of club needs big talent and he’s a big talent, so he just needs to perform at the highest level and that is my focus. I just want to help Marcus.
“We are better with Marcus Rashford, that is simple and we will try different things to push Marcus to the best levels he showed in the past. And that’s all.”
The rumor mill has been buzzing with speculation about Rashford’s potential move to various teams, including a loan stint at Barcelona. However, it’s the Saudi Arabian clubs, especially Al-Ahli, that are expressing significant interest.
