But question marks over a potential January departure from Old Trafford have rightly not stopped him from enjoying the festive period.

On Christmas Eve he shared a snap of him and 17 of his loved ones sitting down for a meal.

It appears to be at a pub or restaurant due to the menus on the table.

Alongside the picture, Rashford added the caption: "Family time - Happy Christmas everyone."

Reacting to the photo, one fan replied: "We love you Rashy."

Another added: "Big family bro… Merry Christmas."

While a third said: "Seasons Greetings Marcus."

And a fourth responded: "Merry Christmas GOAT."

Rashford spoke earlier this month about his future, telling journalist Henry Winter: "Personally, I think I’m ready for a new challenge and the next steps."

After Man Utd's 4-3 defeat to Tottenham last week, Amorim said: "We are better with Marcus Rashford, that is simple, and we will try different things to push Marcus to the best levels he showed in the past.

"This kind of club needs big talent and he’s a big talent, so he just needs to perform at the highest level and that is my focus. I just want to help Marcus.

"Nothing has changed. We believe in Marcus. Marcus is a player of Manchester United, so there’s no change."

Man Utd academy product Rashford has scored 138 goals and assisted 63 in 426 appearances.

This season he has scored seven goals and assisted three in 24 games.

Man Utd travel to Wolves on Boxing Day seeking a first win in three matches.
