Marcus Rashford (born 31 October 1997) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for Premier League club Manchester United and the England national team.
A Manchester United player from the age of seven, he scored two goals on both his first-team debut against Midtjylland in the UEFA Europa League in February 2016 and his Premier League debut against Arsenal three days later.
He also scored in his first Manchester derby match, his first EFL Cup match and his first UEFA Champions League match. With United, Rashford has so far won the FA Cup, EFL Cup, FA Community Shield and UEFA Europa League.
Manchester United’s appointment of Erik ten Hag has reportedly not received the seal of approval of all players. After Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was sacked in November, Ralf Rangnick leading the team on an interim basis did not steady the ship.
Instead, reports circulated that players struggled to buy into the tactics and vision of the German manager. Poor performances and inevitably missing out on Champions League football next season only justifies why a major rebuild is required at Old Trafford.
Therefore, the appointment of a manager with a reputation for significant rebuilds and the ability to reshape a team should fill the squad with confidence.But The Times has revealed that not every player is entirely confident in Ten Hag.
The report claims players are impressed by the Dutchman’s credentials but fear that he may not have a ‘strong enough personality’ to get the club out of its current crisis.Ten Hag was selected over the likes of Paris Saint-Germain boss Mauricio Pochettino and Sevilla’s Julen Lopetegui due to his work at Ajax.
