Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford could potentially join Lionel Messi in Major League Soccer (MLS) if the England international signals his willingness to make the move to the United States.

The 27-year-old has been left in a state of uncertainty under Manchester United’s new manager, Ruben Amorim. Despite Rashford’s immense talent and proven track record, he appears not to be in Amorim’s long-term plans, sparking speculation about his departure from the club.

Initially, Rashford showed promise under the Portuguese tactician. He netted the first goal of Amorim’s reign just seconds into the manager’s debut game against Ipswich Town.

This performance led to high expectations that Rashford would play a significant role in United’s future.

However, subsequent events have painted a different picture. Since that initial outing, Rashford has been conspicuously absent from United’s matchday squads.

The forward’s lack of involvement has only fueled rumors of a potential exit. On December 30, Rashford was included in the squad for Manchester United’s game against Newcastle United. However, despite the team’s 2-0 defeat, he remained an unused substitute, further highlighting his diminished role in the team.

This situation has reportedly captured the attention of multiple MLS clubs. These teams are said to be waiting for Rashford to express an interest in moving to the U.S. before making concrete offers. The allure of MLS is undeniable, especially with stars like Lionel Messi already making waves in the league. Rashford’s potential arrival would undoubtedly be a massive boost for the MLS, elevating its global profile even further.

For Rashford, a move to the United States could represent a fresh start and an opportunity to regain his confidence and form. At 27, he is at the peak of his career and has plenty to offer on the pitch. His experience in top-tier European competitions, coupled with his international pedigree, would make him a valuable asset to any MLS team.
