Marcus Rashford's future with Manchester United uncertain after World Cup struggles

Summary

Marcus Rashford's performance at the 2026 FIFA World Cup may influence his future with Manchester United this summer. After a loan spell at Barcelona, where he scored 14 goals, Rashford was expected to secure a permanent move. However, Barcelona opted for Anthony Gordon instead. He has been used sparingly in the World Cup, most recently benched for England's matches against Mexico and Norway, with Stuart Pearce questioning his limited role. As transfer interest from Arsenal and Tottenham emerges, Rashford's potential reintegration into the United squad remains to be seen.
