Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim said he is ready to nurture Marcus Rashford back to top form as he urged the England international to show his desire.
The forward scored the first goal of the Amorim eraat Ipswich on Sunday. After that he struggled at Portman Road, after being picked in an orthodox number nine role he is not keen on.
It is now almost 18 months since Rashford showed his best scoring form, when he scored a career-best 30 goals in Erik ten Hag’s first season at United.
Amorim accepts the job he gave Rashford on Sunday was not ideal and has pledged to work with the 27-year-old to get him back to his best form.
However, the main factor is Rashford himself, according to United's new boss.
"We'll try to find the right solution for him but he has to be Marcus, first of all, to try to return to that moment," said Amorim.
"Then he will have all the help of the staff, the club and the fans because he is a Manchester United boy. But he has to be the first one to want it.
