RUBEN AMORIM has a theory on who was behind Marcus Rashford’s bombshell transfer interview — but the Manchester United boss will “forget it… for now.”. Rashford declared he is “ready for a new challenge” after being axed from Amorim’s squad for the 2-1 win over Man City.

The forward has since failed to feature in United’s next two matches, a 4-3 Carabao Cup defeat to Spurs and Sunday’s 3-0 home loss to Bournemouth in the Premier League. And Amorim, who is being backed by United's board, has given no guarantee that Rashford will be involved for the tricky Boxing Day trip to Wolves either.

It’s led to speculation that United’s academy product could be sold when the January transfer window opens. Yet Amorim reckons there could be other forces at play. Amorim said: “It is a hard situation. I understand that these players have a lot of people around them, making choices that are not the first idea from the player.
“I am always here to help Marcus as another player. I have to do what I have to do. “They chose to do the interview as it is not just Marcus. I have understood that.

Amorim did offer an olive branch to Rashford though, insisting he will “forget the interview now.”. He added: “At the moment I focus on improving Marcus and we need a talented guy like Marcus. “I forget the interview now and see what I see on the pitch.”.
