Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville believes Marcus Rashford’s time at Old Trafford could be coming to an end following his continued absence from the club’s recent matchday squads.
The England international has been left out of United’s last three matches, fuelling speculation over his future under manager Ruben Amorim.
Softfootball understands Neville believes recent examples of players thriving after leaving Old Trafford may encourage Rashford to consider a fresh start elsewhere.
Speaking to the club’s official website, Neville said:
There are good examples as well of players who have struggled at United. Jadon Sancho has gone to Chelsea and is doing better, Scott McTominay wasn’t struggling but he left to go to Napoli and he is doing well, so Marcus might think it is the right thing for him as well.
The former United defender suggested the ongoing uncertainty has become an unnecessary distraction for both the player and the club.
It is getting to the point where you leave him out three games on the bounce, something really is obviously going wrong. I suspect it is getting to that point in the journey where it has got an inevitable ending,
he added.
Rashford’s future remains one of the biggest talking points at Manchester United as speculation over a possible January departure continues to grow.
