Henry tells Rashford to think about United exit

MARCUS Rashford needs to make a serious decision about his United future in the summer, according to ex-Arsenal star Thierry Henry.

He claims that Rashford, who missed the defeat to Newcastle with a slight injury, may have to think about leaving Old Trafford at the end of the season.

Rashford hasn’t started any of the last six games after the arrival of Alexis Sanchez.

Jose Mourinho has swapped things around, with Anthony Martial now often on the right and the Chilean on the left.

Romelu Lukaku is still being played in the centre, which leaves Rashford warming the bench.

And this seems to have prompted calls from the former France international to say the United forward’s best chance of playing games is to leave Old Trafford.

He said: “One of the most important things for me is that you have to play.”

“You cannot be on the bench and missing games, missing learning about the game and stopping that momentum, and an example is Rashford.

“Leave is a strong word. Obviously being from there, he wants to play for United. But he has to play and it is becoming even more difficult for him since Sanchez has arrived.

“I think at the end of the season, he is maybe going to have a thinking day of ‘do I stay?’”
