Man United’s coach Ruben Amorim has revealed the only way Marcus Rashford could return to the club this summer.

During a press conference that quickly captured attention across England, Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim tackled the growing speculation around Marcus Rashford’s future, making it clear that a possible return would only happen under strict conditions. Rashford’s position at the club has been uncertain following a difficult season filled with inconsistent performances and reports of tension behind the scenes. While he has been strongly linked with a move away from Old Trafford, Amorim didn’t leave much room for doubt when asked if Rashford could find his way back into the team.

“I know he has improved a lot, he’s working harder and trying to get back to his best — but he could only return here on one condition,” Amorim stated. Pressed further, the Portuguese coach explained that Rashford would need to fully commit to the new standards of discipline and tactical responsibility that are now expected at Manchester United. Amorim was clear: total dedication to the team’s goals, rather than individual ambitions, would be the non-negotiable requirement for any player hoping to succeed under his leadership. “If he’s ready to give 100 percent commitment to this project, to work for the team and not just for himself, then of course the door is open. But it has to be on those terms. No exceptions,” he added.

Rashford, once one of United’s brightest young talents, struggled to find consistency last season as injuries and off-field distractions took their toll. Whispers of a strained relationship with the former coaching staff and fluctuating form raised serious doubts about whether he could remain part of United’s future plans. Recent reports have suggested that Rashford has been working diligently during the off-season to rebuild his fitness and sharpen his focus, something Amorim acknowledged but made clear would only matter if matched by total buy-in to the team-first culture.

With Amorim now building a new era at Manchester United based on hard work, tactical adaptability, and strict discipline, it’s evident that past reputations will no longer guarantee special treatment. As the summer transfer market continues to heat up, Rashford’s next move remains a key storyline to watch. Whether he chooses to rise to the challenge set by Amorim or seek a fresh start elsewhere is something only time will reveal.
