BREAKING NEWS: Coming live from Fabrizio Romano, “I didn’t have the privilege to spend most of my career with rashford. But one thing I will tell the world he’s a great lad and he’s better than mbappe I spoke to him yesterday and honestly he’s passing through a lot, he’s trying hard to come out of it but the press and the england fans are not helping. He cares a lot about the club but right now he’s really in a dark place”. Former united star Ibrahimovic has called for united to let him leave the Club either permanent or on loan or give him all the support he needs. According to Reports, Ibrahimovic believes it might be best for Marcus Rashford to leave the Red Devils this summer. He stated that the Englishman has been stuck at the club and needs a change to fulfill his potential. No one really knows what his mentality is but he’s going through a lot- Former Manchester United star Nicky Butt expresses concern over Marcus Rashford.

Former Manchester United striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic has suggested that it might be in Marcus Rashford’s best interest to leave the club this summer. Ibrahimovic believes that Rashford has been stuck at Manchester United for too long, and a change of environment could help him unlock his full potential.

Speaking on talkSPORT, former Manchester United player Nicky Butt echoed similar sentiments. Butt, who has known Rashford since he was a child, expressed concern over the forward’s current form. He emphasized that Rashford is a highly talented player but has struggled to perform at his best in recent years. Butt said, “I’ve known Marcus since he was probably eight or nine at Manchester United, and he’s always been someone we’ve had high hopes for. I still believe he has the talent to become one of the top players in the world.”

However, Butt acknowledged that Rashford’s form at Manchester United has been disappointing in recent seasons. He suggested that a change of clubs might be necessary for Rashford to rediscover his best form. “It’s sad to see him not clicking at Manchester United over the last few years. We’ve all been waiting for him to turn things around, but maybe it’s time for a change. No one really knows what his mentality is like, but there’s no denying the talent he has. He’s a top footballer.”

Butt also addressed the criticism Rashford has faced from fans and pundits, who have often questioned his commitment and body language on the pitch. Butt defended Rashford, stating, “People say he doesn’t care, but I can tell you he does. He’s a proper lad who cares deeply about his performances. But maybe it’s time for him to find a new club where he can take a deep breath and not be under constant scrutiny. He has become a scapegoat for Manchester United’s struggles, but it’s not just him—the entire squad needs to step up.”

Rashford has struggled to find his best form since the start of the 2023-24 season. Despite playing 245 minutes in the Premier League, he has yet to score a goal or provide an assist. He also played 83 minutes in the Community Shield but failed to make any significant impact. Although Rashford has come close to creating several goal-scoring opportunities this season—most notably with missed chances by teammates Joshua Zirkzee and Alejandro Garnacho—his overall contribution has been below expectations.

Last season, Rashford’s performances were also underwhelming. He played 33 matches in the Premier League, scoring just seven goals and providing three assists. He added two more assists in the UEFA Champions League. Despite rumors linking him with a move to Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) this summer, Rashford has remained at Manchester United.

The ongoing struggles of Marcus Rashford have led to growing concerns about his future at Manchester United. Both Ibrahimovic and Butt believe that a change of scenery might be what Rashford needs to reignite his career and fulfill the immense potential he has shown since his youth days at the club.
