The Englishman has spent his entire career at Manchester United, where the expectations for academy graduates can be intense. While Rashford has generally met these expectations, the past two seasons have been challenging for the 26-year-old.
Last season, he managed only eight goals and six assists in 43 matches, and in the current campaign, he has contributed just one goal and one assist in the first eight Premier League games. This performance falls short of what is expected from a player with 134 career goals for United, suggesting that the pressure may be affecting him.
According to El Nacional, Rashford has asked to leave the club and instructed his agent to find him a new team as soon as possible, potentially leading to a departure from Old Trafford in January. The report indicates that while three clubs are interested in him, it remains uncertain whether United will permit him to leave midseason.
