- Marcus Rashford pictured leaving Man United training in £200k Bentley
- The 27-year-old has recently been excluded from United manager Rubén Amorim
- LISTEN NOW: It’s all starting! New line-up, some new faces, but optimism has faded at Old Trafford
Marcus Rashford has been seen leaving Manchester United’s training complex for the first time since revealing he wants to leave the club.
The England international, 27, wearing a Nike-branded cap, could be seen sitting in the back seat of a chauffeur-driven Bentley Flying Spur Azure after leaving Carrington on Sunday.
Rashford is serving a six-month driving ban after he was caught exceeding the speed limit on the M60 last year in his Rolls-Royce.
After a dismal campaign under Erik ten Hag last season, the arrival of Ruben Amorim appeared to offer the 27-year-old a chance at a new life at Old Trafford.
In Amorim’s first Premier League game at the club, Rashford scored an early goal in a draw with Ipswich and followed up with a brace in a dominant 4-0 win over Everton last month.
But Rashford has since found his playing time increasingly limited and was benched for league defeats to Arsenal and Nottingham Forest.
Marcus Rashford was pictured leaving Man United’s Carrington training complex on Sunday.
The 27-year-old was chauffeured in a Bentley Flying Spur Azure after being suspended from driving.
Rashford has been excluded from United’s last four matchday squads by manager Ruben Amorim
Rashford was then ruled out entirely for the Manchester derby against City and since then Amorim is yet to name him in the matchday squad.
The Man United striker later revealed in an explosive interview that he is “ready for a new challenge.”
In a long exchange with journalist Henry Winter, he said: ‘For me personally, I think I’m ready for a new challenge and next steps.
‘When I leave there will be no hard feelings.’ You’re not going to get any negative comments from me about Manchester United. That’s me as a person.
‘If I know a situation is already bad, I’m not going to make it worse.
‘I’ve seen other players leave in the past and I don’t want to be that person. When I leave I will make a statement and it will be mine.’
Earlier this month, Amorim questioned the “choices” of those around Rashford.
“It’s a difficult situation,” Amorim said. “I understand that these players have a lot of people around them and sometimes they make decisions that are not the player’s first idea. I understand that, I can separate things.
In an interview earlier this month, Rashford revealed he is “ready for a new challenge”, sparking speculation over a possible move away from Old Trafford.
Rubén Amorim later questioned the advice given to Rashford by members of his entourage.
“I’m always here to help Marcus, like any other player.
‘They have to do what they have to do. They chose to do the interview because it’s not just about Marcus. I understand.’
Thursday’s defeat against Wolves condemned United to their eighth Premier League defeat of the season.
With just 22 points from their first 18 games, the 20-time top-flight champions are closer to the relegation zone than the top four.
United return to action on Monday night when they host Eddie Howe’s Newcastle, although it remains to be seen whether Rashford will return to the matchday squad.
