According to SPORTbible, the Manchester United star had missed training after he was reported ill, only for him to be spotted on a night out in Belfast.

His conduct saw him axed from the team that played Newport County in the FA Cup last Sunday, with manager, Erik ten Hag vowing to 'deal with it'.

It is understood that the issue has since been sorted out internally, with Rashford fined a substantial amount and his future at the club now uncertain.

Arsenal linked with Rashford move

Football Insider claims that Arsenal are keeping tabs on the forward's situation at Old Trafford with the view of signing him in the summer.

The Gunners have been longtime admirers of the Man United academy graduate, having been linked with a move for him back in 2022.

At the time, the North Londoners were said to have set aside an amount of £45 million to secure the services of the English forward.

The latest reports linking the forward with a switch to the Emirates Stadium have sparked reactions, with fans taking to social media to express their feelings.

While a section of Arsenal fans contended that the England international could be a good fit for them, others felt the club should not make a move for him.

Times Rashford has been in trouble

Sports Brief also previously reported on the other times Rashford had to apologise to ten Hag.

The forward is no stranger to indiscipline, having been caught on the wrong side multiple times.

Last year, he was spotted at a nightclub just hours after United's defeat in the Manchester derby.
