With Tuesday’s Premier League victory over Brighton (2-0), Manchester United gave themselves a breath of fresh air. Despite this success, rumors of a split between the English club and Cristiano Ronaldo began to surface. On social networks, Marcus Rashford responded to this.
Managing a star-studded squad can be challenging. Despite a very ambitious recruitment, it appears that Manchester United have struggled to reflect the qualities of their players on the pitch. Fourth in the Premier League, the Red Devils were expected at the start of the season to be a team capable of fighting for the Premier League title.

Especially since the return of Cristiano Ronaldo last summer has unleashed emotions. But this week, rumors emerged of a rift between the England and Portugal national team. The latter would like to orientate the dressing room, which will not be to the taste of the first cities.
Faced with the volume of rumours, Marcus Rashford responded on social networks by denouncing the desire to divide: “Are we innovating as we go now? Please stop looking for divisions.”
Ronaldo’s resurrection?
Denial falls when the Mancons regain confidence against Brighton. Muted for six matches, Ronaldo even ended the drought by opening the scoring for his family. Performance noted by coach Ralph Rangnick: “Vigorously, he always tried to help his teammates, it was definitely his best performance, and a very important goal for us.”
The symbol of this rescue for him, the Portuguese posted a powerful message on Instagram: “No one gives up and there is only one way to get back on the right track: hard work, teamwork, hard work. Everything else is noise. Come to the Reds Devils!”
