The 27-year-old forward appears to have fallen out of favour as he has struggled to rediscover the form that saw him score 30 goals across all competitions in the 2022-23 season.

Amorim said earlier this week his team is "better with Marcus Rashford," but he also stated he has set high standards for players in terms of things like conduct during training and with team mates.

"Rashford out again? It is my decision, and it always will be," Amorim told Sky Sports in his pre-game interview. "I want to see the best of my players, and then I try different things with different players, so that is my focus."
