Marcus Rashford is excited about the prospect of Ruben Amorim becoming Manchester United’s new manager and believes he can help turn around Ruben Amorim’s poor form, sources told TEAMtalk.

An agreement was reached between Manchester Utd and Sporting CP, and the Portuguese coach is believed to take over after the November international break.

Barring any setbacks, Amorim should be on the bench for the Red Devils’ clash against Ipswich Town at Portman Road on November 24.

As we reported on Tuesday, the response from the Man Utd squad to Amorim’s pending appointment at Old Trafford has been overwhelmingly positive. They see him as a modern, forward-thinking manager who can bring the team on par with their Premier League rivals.

The Man Utd board have emphasized that they expect Amorim to develop Man Utd’s players, particularly the new signings, as well as those whose form has slumped under Erik ten Hag.

Rashford It definitely falls into the latter category and we understand that Amorim is confident he can get the England international playing at their best again.

Sources say Man Utd’s soon-to-be new manager has a ‘great appreciation’ of Rashford’s ability to play in all attacking positions and believes he can significantly improve his performances in the short term and help him regain his confidence.

Many members of the Man Utd squad were saddened by Ten Hag’s sacking but agreed it was the right decision. Rashford’s relationship with Ten Hag was initially very good, but some disagreements over the last few months caused their relationship to sour somewhat.

This is one of the reasons why the winger, who believes fresh air is essential for Man Utd to progress, is happy to see Amorim replace the Dutchman.

Rashford has been the subject of transfer speculation in recent months and TEAMtalk has confirmed that Paris Saint-Germain are monitoring his situation closely. Along with Marseille and Bayern Munich.

PSG are Rashford’s biggest fans but Man Utd’s stance is clear; They have absolutely no plans to sell him and are in a strong position given he is under contract until 2028.

While Amorim is convinced that Rashford can once again be one of the Premier League’s most dangerous attackers, everything points to the striker being at the center of Man Utd’s project for a long time to come.
