The England striker hasn’t played since December 12’s Europa League game against Viktoria Plzen, where he was subbed off. His training attitude has since come under fire from manager Ruben Amorim.
His only appearance on the team sheet came as an unused sub during United’s 3-0 loss to Newcastle on December 30. When asked about Rashford after United’s recent 3-1 defeat to Brighton, Amorim cryptically said “it’s his choice,” sparking rumours that Rashford had requested not to play.
However, club insiders say Amorim’s words were misinterpreted. They believe he meant Rashford’s future depends on his own actions. Sources close to Rashford insist he’s eager to play and has no beef with Amorim.
While several European clubs are eyeing Rashford, a loan move looks likely before February’s transfer deadline. It’s unclear how often he’s trained with the first team during his exile.
United’s preparation for their crucial Europa League clash with Rangers will be partially visible to media on Wednesday, with cameras allowed to film the first 15 minutes of training at Carrington.
Both teams are fighting for European spots – United sits seventh with 12 points, while Rangers trails by one point in eighth. With Plzen just three points behind in 17th place and two games left, neither team is guaranteed even a play-off spot.
