Rashford Takes Responsibility, Man United Boss Confirms Case Closed

Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag has stated that the recent incident involving Marcus Rashford in Belfast has been resolved, with Rashford accepting responsibility for his actions. Ten Hag emphasized that the situation was addressed internally as a disciplinary issue and now considers the matter settled. Rashford was notably absent from Manchester United’s squad for their FA Cup game against Newport County, having missed a training session at Carrington due to reported illness. However, controversy arose when Rashford was seen at a nightclub in Belfast the night before he called in sick. This raised questions about his professionalism.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Ten Hag remarked, “Marcus has taken responsibility for his actions. This has been dealt with as an internal disciplinary matter, which is now closed. He has taken responsibility and the rest is an internal matter. Case closed.” The manager’s comments suggest a desire to move past the incident and focus on the team’s upcoming matches.
