Manchester United will play Son Heung-min's Tottenham in the quarterfinals of the Carabao Cup (League Cup) 2024-2025 season at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, England, at 5 a.m. on the 20th (Korea time). Manager Amorim pointed out that Rashford's remarks were wrong at the press conference against Tottenham. He criticized "If I were him (Rashford), I would probably have spoken to the coach first"
In an interview with journalist Henry Winter released on the 18th, Rashford said `I'm ready for a new challenge.' It is an answer that came out when asked about the future course of action, which is causing a big stir.
Born in Manchester, Rashford was associated with Manchester United at the age of seven. He made his first team debut in February 2016 when he was 18. Rashford, who scored two goals on the first stage, is already in his 10th season.
He has established himself as Manchester United's savior, scoring 17 goals and five assists in 35 English Premier League (EPL) games in the 2022-2023 season, the first season of his former head coach Erik ten Hag. However, the form of the 2023-2024 season has fallen sharply. He only scored seven goals and had two assists in 33 matches in the EPL.

Rashford has four goals and one assist in 15 league games this season. Concerns continue to be raised in the privacy of not being able to concentrate on football. During the A-match break last month, he was seen flying to the United States and watching NBA games in New York. Manchester United legend Gary Neville criticized Rashford for questioning his 'professional spirit'.
Director Amorim pulled out the knife. He excluded Rashford from the team's roster for the Manchester derby against Manchester City on the 16th. It wasn't an injury. It's because of the lack of training. Manager Amorim went one step further and emphasized that out-of-game problems such as players' clothes and relationships with teammates are also reflected in decision-making.
Rashford "I won't make it worse if I know the situation is already bad. I saw how other players left in the past. I don't want to be that kind of person. "If I leave, I'll make my own stand."
And even if I leave, I don't feel bad about the team. There will be no negative comments about Manchester United either. That's who I am"Personally I think I'm ready for the new challenge and the next step"
Rashford scored 138 goals in 426 appearances in all tournaments in 10 seasons. Although it was always protected by the 'Sunggol Youth', the current atmosphere is different again.
Alejandro Garnacho, who was excluded from the match against Manchester City along with Rashford, was caught going to London. However, Rashford was not seen, according to the report by The Sun.
Amorim said "My focus on Rashford and all the players is to set the bar and see if they can do it. And then play the game."
