Rashford wants to play football 'without name mentioned every day'
Marcus Rashford says he would like to play football without his "name being mentioned every day" after Gary Neville tried to start a conversation about the Manchester United forward on a podcast.
Marcus Rashford expressed his desire to play football without his name being constantly mentioned, following a conversation on a podcast. During the Stick to Football podcast, Jamie Carragher grew exasperated when Gary Neville asked for opinions on Rashford. Carragher questioned, "Can we have a podcast without mentioning Rashford?" and remarked, "Stop it.
Oh my God. It's like the Trent [Alexander-Arnold] and Rashford... a little part of the podcast." Rashford responded to the clip on social media, expressing his wish to "get my head down and play football without my name being mentioned every day." The 28-year-old is anticipated to remain at Manchester United, having spent the previous season on loan at La Liga champions Barcelona, where they secured the title.
Although his last competitive appearance for United was in December 2024 under manager Ruben Amorim, he may still play in their upcoming Premier League match against Hull on Saturday. Harry Maguire, a defender for United, emphasized Rashford's value to the team, stating that he is a "big asset" and a "huge threat."
