Manchester United's Rasmus Hojlund opens up on the developing chemistry within the team and his personal growth, shedding light on a promising future at Old Trafford.
Rashford said, as reported by Daily Mail, "Listen, I'm not a perfect person," Rashford states. "When I make a mistake, I'll be the first one to put my hand up and say I need to do better. But if you ever question my commitment to Man United, that's when I have to speak up.
"It's like somebody questioning my entire identity and everything I stand for. I grew up here. I have played for this club since I was a boy. My family turned down life-changing money when I was a kid so I could wear this badge."

Rashford continued, "Football can be a bubble. I have tried to stay a normal person, keep my same friends. I have tried my best not to change, even when I'm on a night out or on holiday.
But there's another side to that. I'm a human being. I've made mistakes a lot of lads in their 20s make, and I've tried to learn from them. But I've also made sacrifices nobody sees."
He expresses confusion over the backlash, underscoring a commitment to humanity that extends beyond the pitch.
Rashford concludes by reflecting on the resilience that has characterized his response to adversity, both on and off the field. His story is a testament to the power of self-belief and the relentless pursuit of one's dreams, no matter the obstacles.

"You know what, though? If I'm honest, a part of me doesn't mind it when people doubt me. When everyone is telling me they love me, I get suspicious. I know the way the world works.
"Whenever I've been in my darkest of places, and it feels like half the world is against me, I tend to go off by myself for a couple of days and reset, then I'm fine.
"Other times, when that hasn't worked, I've found someone to talk to. But every time I've been down, physically or mentally, I always feel like that's when I turn it around and play my best football for United and England."
