Marcus Rashford urged to leave Manchester United

The Forward has struggled for regular game time in recent weeks

Marcus Rashford burst on to the scene for Manchester United in 2016 as he marked his debut for the club by scoring two goals against Midtjylland in the second leg of the Europa League. He even scored two goals against Arsenal in his Premier League debut few days later.

Since then he has been ever present for the Premier League giants and has established himself as one of most talented youngsters in the world.

The 20 year old has featured in 102 of the club’s 117 competitive games, as both a starter and a substitute, more than any other Manchester United player under Jose Mourinho.

Despite remaining a key part of Mourinho’s plan at Old Trafford, the England International has struggled for regular game time in recent months. Since the arrival of Alexis Sanchez, Rashford has made United’s starting XI for a Premier League fixture on just three occasions, restricting him to only 408 minutes of top-flight action.

Former Manchester United striker Teddy Sheringham has hailed Rashford as an unbelievable talent and urged him find somewhere where he could play more first team football.

A man who helped United to treble glory back in 1999 told Sky Sports: “I said at the start of the season about Marcus Rashford that he needs to play games.

“He needs to learn what he can get away with on a football pitch, what he can do, what he can’t do.

“You don’t learn that by watching other people play.

“I don’t care how good the players are, it’s all about experience, it’s about making mistakes along the way and coming up against these players week in, week out and knowing how to prepare to play next season and the season after that.

“But if you don’t get the experience, you don’t get the chance.

“All you do is sit and watch and you make mistakes later in life.

“He needs to learn now, he’s an unbelievable talent for me, and he needs to be playing in a first-team somewhere.”
