Marcus Rashford Denies Reports of Seeking Manchester United Exit

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has strongly denied recent reports suggesting he is looking to leave the club. The 27-year-old took to social media to deny claims that he has been in talks with sports agencies to broker a move away from Old Trafford.

A report by The Sun on January 1, 2025, claimed that Rashford was in talks with the Stellar Group, the agency that brokered Gareth Bale’s move from Tottenham Hotspur to Real Madrid in 2013. The article suggested that Rashford was looking to change his representation in an attempt to speed up a move from Manchester United.

In response, Rashford took to Instagram to address the rumors, stating:

“Been a lot of false stories written over the past few weeks, but guys this is getting ridiculous – never met with any agency and don’t have any plans to.”
TEAMTALK

The statement highlights Rashford’s commitment to Manchester United amidst persistent speculation surrounding his future.

Speculation surrounding a potential Rashford departure intensified when he was left out of the matchday squads by new manager Ruben Amorim on a number of occasions. Notably, Rashford was missing from the squad during the Manchester Derby against Manchester City and remained on the bench in the following matches. Those omissions fueled rumors about his dissatisfaction and potential exit from the club.

Still, Rashford has spoken of his commitment to Manchester United, and in his latest interview, he alluded to possibly being open to a fresh challenge but insisted that any decision concerning his future would be taken amicably, with no ill words spoken against the club.
THE INDEP

Rashford’s existing contract with Manchester United will run until the summer of 2025. His performances have, however, attracted interest from various top clubs, including Paris Saint-Germain—commonly referred to as PSG—and Chelsea. However, he has not shown any intention of leaving the club, and his recent statements suggest that he is focused on his role at Manchester United.

The forward’s commitment to the club is further demonstrated by his recent performances. Despite the team’s challenges this season, Rashford has been a consistent contributor, showcasing his skills and dedication on the field.

As the January transfer window goes on, Manchester United fans will be keenly observing Rashford’s situation. With these rumors still doing the rounds, Rashford has come out to clarify his intentions with recent statements, reaffirming his commitment to the club and dispelling unfounded speculations.
