Marcus Rashford speaks out as he claims tabloid newspaper have threatened to publish photo of him with a rapper convicted of murdering a teenage boy

Marcus Rashford has released a statement on Instagram after being contacted by a tabloid outlet over a photo of him allegedly posing with a convicted murderer.

Rashford, 27, is currently being frozen out of the Manchester United first team by Ruben Amorim after admitting last month that he is ready to leave his boyhood club.

The England international was left out of United's squad for their clash with Southampton on Thursday night, but just minutes before the team news was announced, he took to social media to write a lengthy post addressing a separate matter about his personal life.
