Ruben Amorim shares insights on Marcus Rashford’s future amid speculation and talks of a new challenge for the player
Manchester: Ruben Amorim recently opened up about Marcus Rashford’s situation at Manchester United. He mentioned that he prefers to handle issues privately rather than discussing them in the media.
Rashford, who has struggled with form lately, hinted that he might be ready for a change after 20 years with the club. He’s had a tough time, scoring only 15 goals in 67 games since signing a big contract.
He missed the recent match against Manchester City and revealed he was feeling unwell, which could keep him out of the upcoming Carabao Cup game against Tottenham.
During a press conference, Amorim said he hadn’t spoken to Rashford yet but was eager to keep him on the team. He admitted it’s a tricky situation and that he’s a bit emotional about it.
Amorim emphasized that the focus should be on the team and the upcoming match, not just on Rashford. He laughed off questions about Rashford, saying they need to concentrate on Tottenham.
He also mentioned that he doesn’t want to give too much attention to Rashford’s comments, as that could lead to big headlines. Instead, he wants to keep the focus on the team’s performance.
Amorim is keen on pushing for more from his players, including Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho, who also missed the derby but has been training well. He’s happy with Garnacho’s response and readiness for the next game.
Despite some rumors about team leaks affecting player absences, Amorim isn’t worried. He believes in preparing his players well, regardless of any leaks about the lineup.
In the end, Amorim is all about keeping the team spirit high and focusing on the game ahead, rather than getting caught up in individual issues.
