Ruben Amorim Says Marcus Rashford Must Do More Ahead Of Wolves clash

Marcus Rashford revealed he was “ready for a new challenge” during a recent interview with sports journalist Henry Winter. Now Red Devils manager Ruben Amorim has struck back, insisting his side can expect more from a player who has spent so long at Old Trafford. United will take on Wolves in the Premier League on Boxing Day, having fallen to a 3-0 defeat against Bournemouth last time out.

Ruben Amorim believes Marcus Rashford has a responsibility to perform for Manchester United after nearly two decades at Old Trafford.
The forward joined the club’s academy at the age of seven and made his first-team debut in 2016.
However, he revealed that he is “ready for a new challenge” during a recent interview with sports journalist Henry Winter, having been left out of Amorim’s squad for the Manchester derby.

United will face Wolves on Boxing Day, and the Portuguese manager believes The Red Devils have to be strong during a difficult time for the club.
“Some guys have a big responsibility here because they have been here for a long time,” he said when asked about what he expects from Rashford.
“If you have big talents, we need big performances, big responsibility, big engagement to push everybody forward in this moment.
“This is maybe one of the lowest moments in our club. We have to face it and be strong.”
To add to Amorim’s issues at the club, his press conference at Old Trafford was interrupted by a leaky roof.
“If I knew [how], I would solve all the problems of this club, even this [leaky roof at the press conference].

“I know what I am going to do. That is so clear for me. I will not say I am feeling relaxed because I’m really frustrated.
“It’s a very difficult moment, but we will solve problems step by step and find answers for everything.”

United are 13th in the Premier League table ahead of their trip to Molineux.
They suffered a disappointing 3-0 defeat against Bournemouth in their last league match, and Amorim is prioritising a win over Christmas celebrations as he looks to get the club back on track.
