There is a growing possibility that Marcus Rashford (27) will leave Manchester United. In the meantime, attention is being paid to whether Rashford will be able to play a farewell match in Manchester United's uniform.

Currently, Rashford has become almost a presence within Manchester United's team. It's been a long time since I was caught out of the eyes of director Hoobeng Amorim. Even my colleagues are not covering for Rashford. Rashford himself made remarks to the effect that he would leave the team and find new opportunities when he was in such a tight spot.

Manager Amorim has been changing the team's culture with strong leadership since taking the new helm of Manchester United in November. The philosophy is that players who do not train hard are not welcome.

In particular, Rashford, who is not only unable to escape from the swamp of sluggishness but also has an insincere training attitude, is excluded from the consecutive games. Rashford has not been named in the starting list for the last three games in a row. The start of the 2024-2025 English Premier League (EPL) was excluded from the Manchester derby against Manchester City in the 16th round.

Rashford is quite shocked to be excluded from the Man City squad. He "I personally think I'm ready for a new challenge. It will be hard to leave Manchester United, but I won't say anything negative. The exclusion of the Manchester derby list was disastrous. But it's over, it's won, but (the team) have to move on," he said, suggesting a transfer.

Following the EFL Cup against Tottenham on the 20th, Amorim also excluded Rashford in the 17th round of the EPL against Bournemouth at Old Trafford in Manchester on the 22nd.

The shock three-in-a-row exclusion means Amorim has, in the end, completely abandoned expectations for Rashford. It means Rashford and Manchester United's break-up is imminent. There is a possibility that he will leave as soon as the transfer market opens in January.

There is quite a demand for Rashford. British team Talk reports that while Rashford's form has declined since last season, sources say up to four EPL clubs are still interested in him. In addition, famous clubs in the French League 1, the German Bundesliga, and Spain's Primera Liga are also interested in Rashford.

As a result, there is a growing possibility that Rashford will suddenly leave Manchester United in early January. Attention is focusing on whether Rashford's farewell match for Manchester United will be held and when it will be held.

Local media are also interested in this. The question to manager Amorim after the match against Bournemouth was, "'Can you put Rashford in the Boxing Day match against Wolverhampton?' also included this.

However, coach Amorim did not give a definite answer. He gave a very businesslike answer in six words. Director Amorim added "It depends on the situation. We'll see," he said without further explanation. "We'll see" is often synonymous with the phrase "Let's not look forward". In other words, there is a high possibility that Rashford will not be able to play against Wolverhampton. He may not be able to play until the transfer.
