Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has confirmed the availability of Marcus Rashford for the club’s next Premier League match, MySportDab reports.
Rashford has dominated the headlines lately after he was dropped from United’s clash against cross-city rivals Manchester City at the weekend.
Speaking after losing his berth in the squad, the out-of-favor English forward said he is ready to take up a new challenge; in other words, leave the club this summer.
Rashford’s interview further stoked speculations that he must have been frozen out of Ruben Amorim’s new setup at Old Trafford.
Now, speaking in post-match press conference ahead of Sunday’s Premier League clash against Bournemouth, Ruben Amorim cleared the air on the availability for the forward for the match.
In his words, Rashford will be available for the Bournemouth clash. He further re-emphasized that he didn’t drop Rashford in the last matches due to disciplinary issues but for his below-par performance in training.
“Of course Rashford is available for Sunday”.
“Disciplinary issue? No, no… it’s the same thing guys. It’s the same thing,” Fabrizio Romano quotes.
Rashford’s return to Man United squad will douse reports and speculations of a possible rift between him and Amorim, including reports of a possible exit.
However, sources close to the club reveal the 27-year-old may not likely break even into Amorim’s squad and could leave at the end of the season.
He has struggled to return to form since last season but had seemed to pick up his goal-scoring pace under Amorim before the setback in the last two matches.
He will hope to grab the olive branch extended by the Portuguese and prove his critics wrong against the Cherries.
