Manchester United face Tottenham in the Europa League final on Wednesday night as they bid to salvage their horrific season and Marcus Rashford has sent a good luck message to the team
Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has sent his well wishes to the team ahead of their Europa League final against Tottenham on Wednesday night. Ruben Amorim's men have flown out to Bilbao hoping to round off their disastrous season with silverware, which would also secure passage to the Champions League.
United have already picked up one win at the Estadio de San Mames after beating Athletic Bilbao in the semi-finals and now their Premier League rivals stand in their way of yet another European trophy. Amorim has insisted victory would not save their season after falling to 16th in the table following 18 losses.
The Red Devils posted a photo reel on their Instagram page sharing the thoughts of some United players on the upcoming final, including Alejandro Garnacho, Amad Diallo, Patrick Dorgu and Christian Eriksen.
Rashford replied to the post, simply writing: "Good luck guys," followed by a star emoji. The England forward has spent the second half of the campaign on loan at Aston Villa after falling out with Amorim and has impressed, scoring four goals and assisting five.
However, his season came to an early end after he picked up a hamstring injury, with his last game being Villa's 2-1 defeat to Manchester City - in which he scored.
His setback forced him out of Villa's 3-0 FA Cup semi-final loss to Crystal Palace, with the player returning to United's training ground for an injury assessment.
Rashford is unlikely to play for United again while Amorim is manager, after the Portuguese coach criticised his work ethic in training.
He infamously scolded Rashford, claiming he would rather name his 63-year-old goalkeeping coach Jorge Vital on the bench rather than someone who "does not give the maximum".
Villa have an option to buy Rashford for around £40million, but it remains to be seen whether they will activate it. The move has further complications, with United likely to be forced to pay off the rest of his contract.
Rashford has played 426 times for the Red Devils after joining as a seven-year-old, scoring 138 goals and winning a total of five major trophies during that time.
The 27-year-old himself has experience of winning the Europa League after starting in United's 2-0 win over Ajax in the 2017 final.
However, he has also experienced the agony of losing such a final. He also started the 2021 final against Villarreal, which finished 1-1 after extra time before United lost on penalties.

With exception of 2 players, all M United players are below average. I don't understand how they buys their players. Just imagine sacking De Gea for Onana.
most decision was done by cutting wage. that's on the owner Ratcliffe decision we all know De gea still top .

As a Liverpool fan I would love Rashford to come to us.His style of play reminds me of all Ronaldo R9..This boy can do wonders if he goes to a big club like Liverpool or Barca or even Villa next season.
