Marcus Rashford has indicated a desire for a new challenge, potentially signaling his departure from Manchester United. While manager Ruben Amorim expressed a strong wish for Rashford to stay, the 27-year-old forward's comments suggest a move away from Old Trafford might be on the horizon.
Manchester United may soon need to start considering replacements for Marcus Rashford after he indicated a desire to embark on a fresh challenge. The 27-year-old looked primed for a prominent role under Ruben Amorim after netting a brace against Everton, but that may no longer be the case.
In reply to being asked whether he would stay or leave Old Trafford, he said: “For me, personally, I think I'm ready for a new challenge and the next steps." Under 24 hours after those comments were made public, Amorim was questioned on Rashford's future with it appearing though he would actually like him to stay.LIVE UPDATES: Manchester United transfer news
"I spoke with a lot of players individually and during training. What I want is to take the best stuff of Marcus Rashford as the player so I don’t talk about the future, I just talk about the present. With Amad shining in his absence, Rashford will have likely gone down in the pecking order if he does remain at the club. Based on that and a number of other reasons, a summer departure does seem likely with United then potentially looking to sign a replacement.
