Ruben Amorim has told Marcus Rashford he should “speak with the manager” rather than air his grievances publicly after the Manchester United forward hinted he could leave Old Trafford.
The 27- year- old was dropped by United boss Amorim for Sunday’s win at Manchester City and responded by saying he was “ready for a new challenge” in an interview on social media.
Rashford came through United’s youth rank sandh as chalked up 138 goals in 426 appearances for the club since making his debut in 2016.
However, he has lost form over the last 18 months with United and was also axed from England’s Euro 2024 squad.
Rashford has scored just 15 goals in 67 appearances since signing a lucrative new contract 18 months ago, with speculation over his future increasing in recent days.
The forward, who was absent from training on Monday through illness, is set to miss the League Cup quarter-final at Tottenham.
Amorim is keen to keep Rashford but he admitted he would have handled the situation differently when he was a player.
“If this was me, probably I will speak with the manager,” he told reporters on Wednesday.
