Cristiano Ronaldo once ignored Marcus Rashford, but the Portuguese superstar clearly has his reasons.
Marcus Rashford is causing controversy when he shows indiscipline by partying two nights in a row before Man Utd’s training session.
British media initially revealed that Rashford arrived at Thompsons Garage nightclub on Wednesday night (January 24). According to the plan, he will return to England on Thursday (January 25) and take the training field on the morning of January 26 to prepare for the match against Newport in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
Coach Erik Ten Hag confirmed that Rashford was sick and could not practice. However, The Athletic revealed that the England international partied two nights in a row in Northern Ireland, not one. He was also found to be Ԁrunk and unable to enter the room on his own.
Ultimately, Rashford was disciplined internally. He had two weeks’ salary deducted and was not allowed to play in the 4-2 win over Newport.
Last October, the striker born in 1997 was criticized by the former Ajax coach for celebrating his birthday at a nightclub right after a 0-3 loss to Man City in the Premier League. Ten Hag described Rashford’s actions as “unacceptable”. Rashford even arrived late to a team meeting.
What happened to Rashford made fans startled when they remembered Cristiano Ronaldo’s statement at the time of the noisy interview with Piers Morgan.
When asked who was the most professional player at Man Utd, CR7 ignored Rashford even though the England international was the number one striker at that time. He plays explosively and is the main source of goals for Man Utd.
Ronaldo affirmed: “Diogo Dalot is young but very professional and I have no doubt that he will stick with football for a long time because he is young, smart, bright and very professional.”
Casemiro is also highly appreciated by Ronaldo. In fact, the Brazilian midfielder is always aware of his position in the team.
Similarly, Lisandro Martinez was also mentioned by nаme. The Argentinian midfielder shows that every time he plays on the field.
