As a result of the nightclub incident, Rashford missed the 1-0 win against Fulham due to a knock he sustained in training. The United Stand, a fan channel, has speculated that this could indicate uncertainty about Rashford’s future at the club.
In response to a tweet teasing the fan channel’s live stream, Rashford tweeted, “Please STOP spreading malicious rumours.”
However, talkSPORT understands that there are currently no doubts about Rashford’s future at Manchester United. His contract situation was resolved in the summer when he signed a new five-year deal, making him the highest-earning player at the club with a weekly salary of £375,000.
Despite his recent struggles, Rashford had an impressive 30-goal campaign last season. During the 2021/22 season, there were rumors linking him to a possible move to Paris Saint-Germain. There were also concerns that he might leave on a free transfer at the end of the 2022/23 season when his previous contract was set to expire.
Conclusion
Marcus Rashford has dismissed rumours about his Manchester United future as ‘malicious’ and unfounded. The player’s contract situation was resolved in the summer, and there are currently no doubts about his commitment to the club. Despite a challenging start to the season, Rashford’s previous performances and potential make him an integral part of Manchester United’s plans.
