“no way back” for Rashford according to Rio Ferdinand as United boss Ruben Amorim questions want-away striker’s commitment. Out-of-favour Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has “no way back” at Old Trafford, according to former Reds defender Rio Ferdinand.
The 27-year-old has been out in the cold at United since the middle of the December and manager Ruben Amorim was recently quoted saying he would rather play his 63-year-old goalkeeper coach Jorge Vital unless the striker starts to “give the maximum every day in training and in life.”.
It was reported last week that Rashford's representatives were in talks with Barcelona regarding a potential move during the current transfer window, and Ferdinand believes the forward will have no option but to leave Old Trafford following Amorim's statement.
“If I was the player and the manager said that about, my heart, my pride, my ego - it's embarrassment,” Ferdinand told his YouTube channel. “For someone to question your application, to question you giving 100 per cent for the team, saying you're lacking effort and taking shortcuts, that's a damning comment. There's no way back for Marcus after that.
“If he did come back that means other players can take their foot off the gas and have a way back into the team and take shortcuts.”. Rashford has made more than 400 appearances for United since joining the club at the age of seven and has won the Europa League, two FA Cups and two EFL Cups.
