The forward acknowledged that he is looking for a new challenge outside of Old Trafford, which led to Marcus Rashford being sent home from Manchester United training the day following his exclusion in the Manchester derby. Rashford has been a member of United since he was seven years old, but the 27-year-old is looking to leave after being mercilessly fired by new manager Ruben Amorim for Sunday’s trip to the Etihad Stadium.
As he looks to establish himself as the club’s new manager, Amorim excluded Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho from the matchday squad for the derby match, claiming that their demeanour and behaviour within the group were inadequate. Rashford then showed up for work on Monday morning at United’s Carrington training complex, according to the Daily Mail. However, a doctor’s assessment revealed that he had a high temperature, so he was sent home.
Rashford sent home from training as star admits he wants to leave
In the interview with Winter, who has reported on several of Rashford’s charitable endeavours, Rashford stated that he was prepared to leave Old Trafford. “For me personally, I think I’m ready for a new challenge and the next steps,” explained Rashford. “When I leave, it’s going to be ‘no hard feelings.'” I won’t say anything bad about Manchester United to you. That’s who I am.
In the Carabao Cup quarterfinals, United will visit Tottenham on Thursday in an attempt to defeat their “Big Six” rivals on the road twice in a row. Rashford’s return to action in north London is doubtful, given he missed Monday’s training and had the day off the following day. After his remarks in public, it is uncertain if the academy graduate will play for the team again. Amorim may naturally prioritize players that align with his long-term goals. A heartfelt farewell is planned as early as next month, regardless.
