Man United news: Marcus Rashford may be frozen out and forced into exit under new manager – pundit
Marcus Rashford should not make a decision on his Man United future until the new manager is appointed, according to Danny Mills.
Speaking exclusively to Football Insider, the ex-Man City and England defender suggested the forward, 24, could be frozen out under the new boss and then he should try to leave his boyhood club.
As quoted by Eurosport on Saturday (12 March), Ralf Rangnick admitted Rashford could quit Old Trafford in the summer if he wanted to.
The German insisted his player is happy at Man United despite speculation suggesting he was frustrated by his lack of playing time.
“He’s not getting the game time because he’s not playing well enough,” Mills told Football Insider correspondent Connor Whitley.
“It will all depend on the new manager and who that is going to be and what he sees as his plans for Rashford. Is he going to be part of his plans or not?
“I think he needs to hold fire for now, work hard, get as fit as he can and then play as well as he possibly can when he gets the opportunity then wait and see on the new manager.
“He will be thinking ‘I need to play, I want to be playing games’. If that’s not at United he will have to think about his future.”
Rashford has found the net just four times in 19 Premier League games this season, including just 10 starts.
He is under contract at Old Trafford until the summer of 2023 but the club have the option to extend his deal by a further 12 months.
