Previously, Rashford only scored 8 goals in 43 matches across all competitions. Furthermore, he was even fined internally for violating club discipline in January. The disappointing season of Manchester United's star ended with him not being called up to the England national team for the Euro 2024.
With his form declining, there were many rumors that Rashford would leave in the summer of 2024. PSG has just parted ways with Mbappe and they need a speedy star like Manchester United's striker to replace him. However, no negotiations took place and Rashford still participated in the summer tour.
Before Manchester United's match against Manchester City in the English Super Cup, coach Ten Hag praised Rashford, as reported by Independent: “We all see him very enthusiastic during the tour. He has been in great form. We expect a lot from him and the entire team in the upcoming season.
There are many offers surrounding Manchester United and its players. Now, we only know the truth that he is working diligently and devotedly. Rashford has ambitions and motivation to aim for the best season ever”.
Marcus Rashford has just extended his contract with Manchester United until 2028, so the likelihood of him leaving is low. The England international also showed his determination to focus on football by temporarily suspending his social media use.
Ten Hag explained the reasons for Rashford's decline in form last season: “There are many reasons, I think you can list many things. There are things that come from the individual, but there are also things that are due to the situation at the club. In general, everything affects each other in cases like this”.
To date, Rashford has played 9 seasons for Manchester United. Since his debut as a player from the academy, the English star has been shaped to become the new icon of Old Trafford. After 402 matches, Marcus has scored 131 goals and 66 assists for the Red Devils.
