One of Manchester United's Treble-winning team has revealed how Sir Alex Ferguson would have handled Marcus Rashford's current situation at the club. Rashford, 27, admitted in a bombshell interview last month that he is ready to leave his boyhood club, and he has not played under Ruben Amorim ever since.
The England international has made just one matchday squad in the past month, and is now being linked with a potential move abroad, with AC Milan, Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund among the clubs interested in signing him. But Teddy Sheringham, who famously scored the equaliser in United's dramatic 1999 Champions League final win over Bayern Munich, believes Rashford would have already been moved on if Ferguson was still in charge.
Sheringham admitted he is stunned that Rashford wants to leave, and can see no way back for the forward at Old Trafford. 'I think the way he's come out and said that "he's ready for a new challenge" is beyond me,' Sheringham told OLBG. Marcus Rashford revealed last month that he is ready to leave Manchester United.
Rashford has since been frozen out of the United first team by Ruben Amorim. Teddy Sheringham thinks Sir Alex Ferguson would have already got rid of Rashford if he was still in charge. 'You used to get foreigners coming into England saying that sort of thing and people think "yeah, okay".
'However, when it’s one of your own from Manchester; a Manchester boy that should understand the privilege it is to play for Manchester United and where you're at when you're playing for Manchester United. Every player in the world growing up still wants to play for Manchester United and he's saying now that he wants a new challenge somewhere.
