Marcus Rashford’s career is under threat of stalling completely in the next few months as he is set to be left out of Gareth Southgate’s England squad for the upcoming friendlies against Switzerland and Ivory Coast at the end of March.
The Englishman was left out of the starting XI for Manchester United’s trip to the Etihad at the weekend, despite being the only recognised striker in the matchday squad, and 101 reported yesterday that this has left him considering his Red Devil future, with 12 months left on his contract come the summer.
