” Marcus Rashford disappointed me. Before I came to this club, I noticed something and it is true that he is doing it and he does it every time. He should have been helping us now but he refused to listen to me”-BREAKING NEWS as Rúben Amorim finally reveals why Marcus Rashford has been absence from the team and the reason he isn’t helping after losing 1-3 against Brighton at home.
Ruben Amorim provided clarity on Marcus Rashford’s absence from Manchester United’s lineup following their 3-1 defeat to Brighton, addressing the growing speculation surrounding the forward’s future.
Key Highlights from Amorim’s Remarks:
Reason for Rashford’s Exclusion: Amorim disclosed that Rashford’s ongoing absence is a joint decision between the player and the management. Both sides believe stepping away is the best course of action while Rashford evaluates his next career move.
Team Dynamics: The manager emphasized that United’s poor form—managing just three wins in nine matches since Rashford’s last appearance in December—is a team-wide issue, not solely tied to the forward’s unavailability.
Speculation on a Transfer: Rashford’s recent statement to journalist Henry Winter, where he expressed openness to leaving Manchester United for new challenges, has intensified rumors of an imminent transfer. Reports suggest AC Milan is leading the race for the 27-year-old, with other European clubs closely monitoring the situation.
Likely Next Steps:
The uncertainty surrounding Rashford’s future points toward an eventual exit from Old Trafford, with a move to a European club outside the Premier League appearing most plausible. With the transfer window closing on February 3, AC Milan and others could act swiftly to secure his services.
Rashford, who last featured for United in a Europa League match against Viktoria Plzen on December 12, has only been listed as an unused substitute once since then, highlighting his diminishing role at the club. As United grapples with a challenging season, Rashford’s situation reflects broader challenges under Amorim
