Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim expressed doubt about the decisions made by those surrounding Marcus Rashford while affirming his support for the player.
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has questioned the choices of those close to forward Marcus Rashford , whose time at Old Trafford could be coming to an end. The 27-year-old England international sat out a third straight game on Sunday as United slumped to a 3-0 home loss to Bournemouth. Rashford was also omitted from the squad for the derby win at Manchester City earlier this month and Thursday’s League Cup quarter-final defeat by Tottenham.
Two days before the Spurs loss, Rashford said in an interview that he was “ready for a new challenge and the next steps” of a career that began in the United academy. ‘It is a hard situation but I understand that this kind of player have a lot of people around them, and making some choices that sometimes is not the first idea from the player,’ Amorim told. ‘They chose to do that interview because it’s not just Marcus. I understand that so for me as a coach I’m just focused on the performance, the way he trains. Amorim also expressed his support for Rashford, who is under contract until 2028, and is keen for the player to stay at United. The Portuguese said he can “separate” his relationship with Rashford from the decisions of the people advising him. ‘We need a lot in this moment, (from a) talented guy like Marcus, and I forget for now the interview. I just see what I see on the pitch.’ United’s defeat by Bournemouth left them 13th in the Premier League, their lowest position in the top flight at Christmas since 1986
