Newcastle United legend, Alan Shearer, has identified Marcus Rashford as the Manchester United player that benefited from Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure
Shearer said that Rashford now looks happier since Ronaldo left Man United for Al-Nassr as a free agent following his contract termination.
Rashford won Man United’s player of the season award and was impressive for Erik ten Hag’s side this season. “There is no doubt Erik ten Hag has helped him [Rashford], his finishing definitely has improved, he’s fitter now, last season he had a lot of injuries that didn’t help him. But, and it’s a big but, I think the biggest thing that’s happened to him is Ronaldo leaving,” Shearer told BBC.
“He feels as though he is the main man, he can be himself, he feels as though it doesn’t matter if he misses a chance, he’s still going to get another one and another game. You can see that in the 17 or 19 games since Ronaldo left, so that tells you the answer… He looks happier and a big reason for that is Ronaldo leaving.”
