Manchester United supporters are speculating about a potential reversal of a recent decision after journalist Fabrizio Romano removed a social media post from his account. The announcement in question detailed plans for Marcus Rashford to wear the No.14 shirt in the upcoming season, but its deletion has fueled fan theories that club officials at INEOS may be reconsidering the move.
Rashford made his first appearance for United since December 2024 during a pre-season friendly against AC Milan on Saturday, where he wore the No.9 jersey. The No.10 shirt he previously donned until his February 2025 departure is now occupied by summer signing Matheus Cunha, who impressively contributed 10 goals and four assists across 35 appearances in his debut campaign.
With Manchester United’s Premier League season beginning this Saturday, clarity regarding Rashford’s squad number must be established imminently. His status at the club remains uncertain, as club leadership has indicated they would consider facilitating his exit should an appropriate offer materialize before the transfer window closes. Manager Michael Carrick has expressed satisfaction with having the forward available, particularly given his strong performance during a loan spell at Barcelona, where he recorded 14 goals and 14 assists in 49 appearances.
