Agbonlahor’s Harsh Verdict on Man Utd Player’s Future

Agbonlahor Predicts Rashford’s Man Utd ExitFormer Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor has cast doubt on Marcus Rashford’s future at Manchester United under new manager Ruben Amorim. The English forward, who has been a key player for the Red Devils in recent seasons, could face an uncertain future at the club.

Agbonlahor believes that Rashford’s style of play may not fit into Amorim’s tactical plans. The Portuguese manager has already shown a willingness to make bold decisions and is not afraid to drop big-name players.

“Remember when you broke into the first team, how you felt, how happy you were, how you loved playing for Man United, how you celebrated goals, how you were the hardest worker on the pitch? You’re 27, and before you know it, you’ll be in your 30s. Do you want to go down the [Jesse] Lingard route?” Agbonlahor said on talkSPORT.”

Amorim’s come into United to succeed; he’s not come in to just pick players who have been there for a while. If you’re not at it, some of these players have got six months to the summer window. If you’re not at it, you’re gone…”

Agbonlahor further suggested that Rashford’s place in the team could be under threat from younger players like Alejandro Garnacho. “There’s probably not space for both Garnacho and Rashford,” he said. “Looking at a 3-4-3, you’d probably say Garnacho, [Rasmus] Højlund, and maybe an Amad [Diallo] that you’d pick.”

With Manchester United looking to rebuild under Amorim, Rashford’s future at the club remains uncertain. The English forward will need to impress the new manager and prove his worth to secure his place in the team.
