"After a disappointing run of results and friction with the board, the Portuguese tactician was relieved of his duties earlier today, with club legend Darren Fletcher taking over on an interim basis. Door open for Rashford to return? This development may have a major impact on the future of Marcus Rashford, who is currently on loan at FC Barcelona from Manchester United. Indeed, according to SPORT, the English forward's future has entered 'unknown territory' after Manchester United's decision to sack Amorim."
"Barça acquired a €30 million purchase option for the attacker as part of the loan deal. Given how he has performed so far, the plan is to sign him permanently, but the club had hoped to renegotiate those terms. However, Amorim's dismissal could now change Manchester United's stance, as the club may look to bring back their great homegrown talent to lead a new project."
Manchester United have dismissed head coach Ruben Amorim and appointed club legend Darren Fletcher as interim manager. Marcus Rashford is currently on loan at FC Barcelona after a falling-out with Amorim and a prior loan to Aston Villa. Barcelona secured a €30 million purchase option as part of the loan and plan to sign him permanently if financial conditions allow. Manchester United backed Amorim's long-term project, which had effectively closed the door on Rashford's return. Amorim's sacking could prompt United to reconsider and explore recalling Rashford to lead a new project, while Barcelona may seek to renegotiate fee or extend the loan.
