Marcus Rashford has been left out of the Man United squad for the last 3 matches. The English striker also hinted at leaving the place where he was trained since childhood. It is possible that in the winter transfer window, Rashford will leave Man United without having to wait until the summer of 2025.
Rashford has been left out of the squad since his interview with journalist Henry Winter. The 27-year-old star said he was ready to find a new challenge. That statement was no different from declaring that he no longer wanted to play for the "Red Devils". Amorim must immediately remove Rashford from the squad to maintain internal discipline, but does the Portuguese coach really want to break up with his student?
"These things are always difficult to handle. I know that some players don't necessarily want to say what they think. However, people around them or their agents spread the news first. Sometimes it's not necessarily what the player wants to say right away.
They did that interview with Marcus Rashford not necessarily just to get him to say what he thinks. For me, as a head coach, I have to help Rashford like all the other players in the team. For each player, I want to focus on their performance and training, let the club handle everything else.
I want to see a good version of Marcus Rashford. I will forget that interview and see what he can do on the pitch" - Ruben Amorim shared.
Ruben Amorim is considered a fair player when giving everyone a chance since taking charge, Rashford is one of them. The 27-year-old striker has started, come off the bench, and even scored, but it is still not enough to convince the fans and the Portuguese captain himself.
Amorim's giving opportunities to everyone helps the team's dressing room maintain stability. If any player plays well, opportunities will come to them and vice versa. With Amorim's approach, people who were thought to be on the receiving end like Amad Diallo suddenly became pillars. Meanwhile, an harmless player like Rashford was finally " disguised" and could no longer stand in the ranks of Man United due to his level not being able to meet.
Rashford's self-declaration of his future in the media is no different from an act of disorder, but it could be the way he chose to leave Man United soon. From the perspective of former player Gary Neville, Rashford may have behaved badly but it would be better if he had a new destination soon. The most recent case of Jadon Sancho, after leaving Man United and playing well for both Dortmund and Chelsea, is the clearest example.
Marcus Rashford has not closed the door to his future with this decision and Amorim no longer has the responsibility to keep it. If this parting ways comes soon, it is hoped that it will leave good results later for both sides.
