Marcus Rashford was once the darling at Old Trafford, scoring on raining Champions League nights, helping the club to Europa League and FA Cup glory but everything has changed as Ruben Amorim wants him out of the club this summer, Softfootball reports.
The Portuguese Coach wasn’t impressed with Rashford’s work rate when he gave him opportunities last season and was even more angry at his off field activities. That resulted in the England international being sent on loan to Aston Villa in January and asked not to return this summer as he is not needed at the club.
A report by Manchester Evening claimed that following instructions from Amorim that Rashford should not be allowed to join preseason training so he can find a new club.
The Red Devils academy graduate used the back gate on Thursday to enter the Carrington training ground of the club.
Amorim was said to have departed through the front gate at about 4:30pm and Rashford drove in eight minutes later like he had studied the timing of the Portuguese.
Rashford enjoyed a successful loan spell at Aston Villa but Unai Emery’s side could not pay the £40million requested by Manchester United to make the deal permanent. Now, the 27-year-old has firmly set his mind on playing away from the Premier League if any top club could pay for his services and offer him a central role.
Rashford played mostly as a winger for Manchester United but wants a striking position through the middle at his potential new club with the likes of Barcelona and Bayern Munich monitoring his situation at Old Trafford.
Softfootball had reported earlier that Barcelona has made Rashford their top priority signing this summer. The Catalan giants wants competition for Robert Lewandowski in the number nine position and they appreciate Rashford’s versatility to also play as a winger.
Rashford’s final match for Manchester United last season was against Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League on December 12.
