“Amorim does not want his players to come off so close to games and asked Rashford about it, who assured him he had been misinformed about the late exit.
“In the final training session before facing Man City, he gave a lackluster performance, according to many sources, some of whom said he looked tired.
“There were rumours that he had been out the day before, which those close to the player categorically deny.” The statement said.
