Rio Ferdinand has questioned Marcus Rashford on how he expressed his desire to leave Manchester United and shared what he believes to be the “killer” for the 27-year-old star at Old Trafford.
Rashford had to watch from home as his teammates pulled off a thrilling 2-1 victory over Pep Guardiola’s team at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday after being left out of the United matchday squad to play Manchester City.
Rashford expressed his desire to leave Old Trafford and his readiness to begin a new chapter in his career in an interview with Henry Winter that was made public in the days that followed.
According to TeamTalk, while speaking on his Rio Ferdinand Presents YouTube channel, the Man United legend said: “I don’t think this is just a football decision for Manchester United; there is more to it.

He added: “You have to remember that when this kid came onto the scene, he was an absolute breath of fresh air, he was a joke. Again, the body language when he came in, was what every fan saw themselves being if they came in.
“That’s been the biggest killer for me, that his body language, for the last three years, has not been what a Manchester United fan sees himself being in a Manchester United red shirt when a goal goes in or when they step foot out onto Old Trafford.
“His body language has been almost depressive, a recluse-like body language.”
