To make matters worse, Manchester United's struggles in Erik ten Hag's second season at Old Trafford have further compounded his frustrations.

The team's inconsistent results have added to the scrutiny surrounding the 26-year-old's performance.

Criticism or abuse: What has Rashford faced this term?

Reports of his dissatisfaction on the field and off-field incidents, such as being photographed drinking in Belfast in January, have only intensified the criticism directed towards him.

The continuous speculation about a potential transfer away from Old Trafford has also contributed to the negative attention Rashford has been receiving.

His last appearance for United against Coventry City in the FA Cup semi-final was met with boos from some disgruntled fans at Wembley Stadium.

According to The MEN, the Championship side were startled by how Rashford faded during their FA Cup semi-final with Manchester United.
