Tottenham head coach Ange Postecoglou has no interest in discussing the future of Marcus Rashford after the winger hinted at leaving Manchester United.

The Lilywhites host the Red Devils in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup on Thursday, with the whole of N17 willing the team towards their first silverware since 2008.

Ruben Amorim left reporters guessing as to whether Rashford would be included in the starting line-up in North London after being left out against Manchester City on Sunday.

And while all the talk is about the 27-year-old and his future, Postecoglou does not want to be involved in any conversations about him.

He said: “That’s not on my radar. You can ask me about Marcus but you can ask me about every Premier League footballer and I’m going to say the same thing.

“[I have] no interest [in what’s he said], don’t care. He’s a Man Utd player, a very good player.

“They’ve got plenty of good players. But I manage my players and I guess other managers will manage their own players.

“In terms of Marcus’ situation, I have got no real desire to examine it any further.”

Postecoglou had some bad news regarding the fitness of Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero, admitting they will both be out until 2025.

It likely means Archie Gray will line-up alongside Radu Dragusin in defence again, with Ben Davies expected back next week.

However, it will not deter the Australian from instructing his players to continue playing on the front foot.

He added: “I want to win and want to play well. I don’t think it’s anything new. We’ll go out there and try and play our football. If we do, we’ll be hard to stop.
