Carrick praises Rashford's revival as Manchester United eye late signings
LONDON: Manchester United manager Michael Carrick praised Marcus Rashford’s attitude and condition after his return to training amid uncertainty over his future at his boyhood club.
LONDON: Manchester United manager Michael Carrick has commended Marcus Rashford's return to training following his time on loan at other clubs. Rashford's attitude and physical condition have improved significantly, according to Carrick. The England forward had been out of favor with former manager Ruben Amorim in December 2024 before joining Aston Villa and Barcelona on loan.
With the new Premier League season fast approaching, Rashford is likely to be a central focus for United, who are exploring late signings before the transfer window closes on September 1. Carrick stated that Rashford has been "fantastically well" during his recent return to training and looks ready to play football. The United manager confirmed that the club is actively seeking to strengthen their squad, having already signed Belgian playmaker Youri Tielemans and Brazil international Andrey Santos.
United have also been rumored to be interested in Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba, although their initial pursuit last year fell through due to a reported £100 million valuation. The team begins their Premier League campaign against promoted Hull City on Saturday.
