Manchester United Manager, Ruben Amorim reveals that Marcus Rashford is not his player at the moment.
During a recent press conference the manager was asked about Rashford, in which he replied “ I am focused on my team and my players. Rashford is not my player at the moment.”
“But of course I am happy when our players are playing well on loan.”
It can be recalled that the player fell out of Amorim’s good side.
Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has made it clear that Marcus Rashford is not currently his player.
Speaking at his pre-match press conference ahead of the Premier League clash with Nottingham Forest on Tuesday, Amorim addressed Rashford’s recent move away from United.
After falling out of favor with Amorim at Manchester United, Rashford made the switch to Aston Villa on loan for the remainder of the season. Since joining Villa, Rashford has found form, including scoring a brace in their 3-0 FA Cup win against Preston on Sunday.
When asked about Rashford’s progress, Amorim responded: “I’m focused on my team and my players. Rashford is not my player at the moment. But of course, I’m happy when our players do well on loan.”
Amorim also provided an update on Ayden Heaven’s injury, revealing it isn’t too serious. “Ayden’s injury isn’t major. He’s not ready yet, but he will play again this season,” he confirmed.
Inter Miami manager Javier Mascherano has firmly backed Lionel Messi as the greatest footballer of all time, placing him ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo in the long-standing GOAT debate.
Messi and Ronaldo have dominated football for nearly two decades, setting records and pushing each other to new heights. While Messi now plays in the MLS with Inter Miami, Ronaldo continues his career in the Saudi Pro League with Al-Nassr.
Despite both players nearing the end of their careers, their rivalry remains as intense as ever. When asked to choose between the two during a press conference, Mascherano didn’t hesitate.
“You don’t even need to ask,” he said. “Messi is the greatest player in history. There will never be another like him—it’s impossible. He has spent 20 years at the top, scoring and performing. Even if you put him in defence, he’d be the best defender. I’ve seen it myself.”
Mascherano, who played alongside Messi for years, made it clear that in his eyes, there’s no debate.
