It’s Too Early To Talk About Rashford Reviving His England Career – Alan Shearer

Marcus Rashford and Manchester United should sort themselves out, Alan Shearer has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, if Rashford can get his head down, work hard and retrace his steps, things can change for the better for him at MUFC, but it is too early to talk about rejuvenating his England career.

Shearer added that his England career has gone pretty stale at this point because he hasn’t been called up for a while.

His words, “For Rashford, hard work and the correct attitude will see him get back to his best. I don’t know what’s gone on, but something must have happened for him to do that interview and say that it’s best for him to leave Old Trafford. You can’t just flick a switch and get back to your best form, we all have difficult periods where you might not be playing or can’t find the back of the net. There’s only one way to get through that; and that’s to get your head down, work hard and then things should change for the better. I think that it’s too early to talk about his England career – he needs to sort himself out and the club needs to sort themselves out as well.

I don’t think that he can afford yet to be looking at an England career, which has gone pretty stale. He hasn’t been picked for such a long time now, and he hasn’t been playing recently, so I don’t think that anyone can entertain any England talk yet with him.

There have been reports about a swap deal with Napoli for Rashford with Victor Osimhen going to Old Trafford. We’ve seen other players go to Serie A and get their careers going. However, I think that where Marcus is concerned, he’d have to look at every option – to see whether one fits or suits him, as well as Manchester United, which is perhaps the bigger consideration.

Whether that can be done in the next month or so, or whether he’s going to try and force his way back into the Man Utd starting eleven, I don’t know. I do get the idea that it would be very difficult to get a deal done, because of all the different angles and parties involved with the deal. I do think that it will be difficult to get a deal done this January, regardless of a loan or a permanent deal. It’s a really difficult transfer to do. There’s a lot to do and so many aspects to a transfer. First of all, it’s about agreeing on a fee, secondly, agreeing to a salary – he’s on a huge wage right now at Man Utd and I’d be amazed if somebody in the Premier League would be willing to match that.”

WOW.
