Former Manchester United striker Teddy Sheringham has blasted Marcus Rashford for setting his sights on a move away from Old Trafford. Sheringham, who scored for Sir Alex Ferguson’s side in the dramatic Champions League final victory over Bayern Munich during the 1999 Treble season, doesn’t understand how Rashford can be looking for another challenge when he's already playing for one of the world's biggest clubs.
And the ex-England international feels the 27-year-old Mancunian's roots make his determination to leave the Reds even more baffling. Sheringham, asked which club would be a good fit for Rashford, insisted: “I don't know – and I don't care, really.
“I think the way he's come out and said that ‘he's ready for a new challenge’ is beyond me. 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 who should understand the privilege it is to play 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. I don't understand it!.
“Fergie would’ve booted him out the door by now if he'd have said that while he was in his tenure. He's obviously going to go somewhere. I think his days are numbered at Man United.”. United boss Ruben Amorim will not stand in Rashford’s way if a club can be found to take the Wythenshawe-born striker. There have been no takers at £70million, but Barcelona, AC Milan and Napoli are all interested in securing a loan deal.
