‘I hate seeing things like this’ - Sky Sports pundit reacts to what Man Utd star has done
Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is expected to end his 20-year association with the Red Devils during the ongoing January transfer window, and Sky Sports pundit Paul Merson believes he could regret leaving the club.
The 27-year-old is on the radar of a couple of big European clubs after admitting that he is open to a new challenge, and he has not featured in the last seven games the Old Trafford club have played.
Rashford has already made his last appearance for Man United from the look of things, and Merson is far from happy with the mess he has found himself in.
“It’s a shame and won’t be easy to move on with his wages” the pundit said.
“I hate seeing things like this. Talented footballer at one of the biggest clubs at the world is going astray. Wherever he goes, PSG or AC Milan, he still needs to take his head with him.
“I hope he doesn’t look back on his career and think what have I done. It’s a shame.
“I’m gutted for him as I think he has lost his way. Doing that interview and saying he wants to move on, don’t do that at Man United. It’s a phenomenal football club.”
Rashford appears to have lost the passion to play for Man United, and the logical thing is for both parties to part ways.
He has not been able to fulfil his huge potential at the club, and while it remains to be seen whether a move elsewhere will help get his career back on track, it could be the best option for him to take.
He may need to lower his demands if he really wants an exit as not many clubs can afford his current wages, and failure to seal an exit before the end of the January transfer window could see him remain out of the team until the end of the campaign.
