Carrick praises Rashford’s revival amid doubts over United future
Michael Carrick's comments come as the club continue to explore ways to strengthen the squad before the transfer window closes.
Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has lauded Marcus Rashford's return to training and overall condition following an 18-month loan spell at Aston Villa and Barcelona. The England forward, who fell out of favor with former boss Ruben Amorim in December 2024, has shown significant improvement and is eager to focus on playing football without the constant media attention.
Rashford recently expressed his desire to concentrate on his football career without being constantly scrutinized, following a teaser clip where former defender Gary Neville discussed the forward's situation. Carrick watched Rashford train alongside Kobbie Mainoo and Licha Martinez in Dublin, noting the player's fantastic progress and readiness to play.
United is actively looking to strengthen its squad ahead of the transfer window's closure on September 1st. The club has already signed Belgian playmaker Youri Tielemans and Brazil international Andrey Santos to bolster their midfield. Additionally, there have been rumors of interest in Brighton & Hove Albion's Carlos Baleba, though United failed to secure him last year after a reported £100 million valuation.
United's Premier League campaign starts against promoted Hull City on Saturday.
