Former Arsenal star, Paul Merson has claimed Ruben Amorim’s job at Manchester United is on the line following his decision to oust Marcus Rashford before he completed a loan move to Aston Villa.
Rashford left Old Trafford over the weekend to sign a loan deal with Aston Villa till the end of the current campaign.
Before deciding to leave for Villa Park on Sunday, the 27-year-old was linked with moves to AC Milan and Barcelona. He hasn’t played for United since their victory over Viktoria Plzen in mid-December.
Rashford, who has made 426 first-team appearances for the Red Devils since 2016, will be playing for a different team for the first time.
