Marcus Rashford said he would like to play football without his “name being mentioned every day” after Gary Neville tried to start a conversation about the Manchester United forward on a podcast.<\/p>\n

Rashford replied to a clip of the Stick to Football podcast in which Jamie Carragher expressed his frustration when former United defender Neville asked for thoughts on Rashford.<\/p>\n

“Can we do a podcast without mentioning Rashford?” Carragher said.<\/p>\n

“Stop it. Oh my God. It’s like the Trent [Alexander-Arnold] and Rashford\u2026 like a little part of the podcast. The Trent part or the Rashford part.”<\/p>\n

Rashford replied to the clip in a post on X, saying: “Thanks, Jamie. It would be great to be able to get my head down and play football without my name being mentioned every day.”<\/p>\n

The 28-year-old looks set to stay at United after spending last season on loan at Barcelona, with whom he won the La Liga title.<\/p>\n

His last competitive appearance for United came under former manager Ruben Amorim in December 2024, but he could feature in their Premier League opener against Hull on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Speaking after United’s 4-2 friendly defeat by AC Milan on Saturday, defender Harry Maguire said he hoped Rashford would stay<\/a> at Old Trafford because he is a “big asset” and a “huge threat”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Marcus Rashford said he would like to play football without his “name being mentioned every day” after Gary…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":861251,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-861250","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/861250","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=861250"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/861250\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/861251"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=861250"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=861250"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=861250"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
