Pochettino sets sights on restoring Rashford’s form at Manchester United

Published on: 13 November 2026

New Manchester United head coach Mauricio Pochettino hopes to help winger Marcus Rashford rediscover his best form, according to reports.

Rashford returned to his boyhood club after a loan spell at Barcelona, but the current season has proved difficult. The England international has not registered a goal or assist and has been sidelined with a hip injury since the end of October.

Journalist Matt Law, citing sources close to Pochettino, reports that the Argentine wants to help Rashford restart his career and return to the level he previously reached.

Pochettino plans to provide the 29-year-old with the support he needs, in a similar way to his work with Dele Alli during his time as Tottenham Hotspur manager.

Pochettino will replace Michael Carrick at Manchester United. Carrick’s dismissal was announced on Thursday.
