JAKARTA - Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim said Marcus Rashford would miss the Premier League match on Sunday, January 5, 2025, against leaders Liverpool at Anfield due to illness.
The 27-year-old was not included in the squad for four games in a row before entering the bench for the game against Newcastle United.
However, Rashford was not fielded in the 0-1 defeat at Old Trafford on Tuesday, December 31, 2024, early morning WIB.
With five defeats in the last six league games, Manchester United slumped in 14th place in the standings with 22 points from 19 matches.

The record is their worst position to end the calendar year since being in 15th place in 1989.
"The situation is the same, he is currently sick. He is not practicing," Amorim told reporters ahead of the match, Saturday, January 4, 2025.
The atmosphere initially did not include Rashford in the Manchester Derby 2-1 win at the Etihad on December 15, 2024.
Two days after that, the England international said he was ready for a new challenge after being at Manchester United since the age of seven.
Rashford has scored 138 goals in 426 appearances since making his senior debut in 2016. He has already won Europa League titles, two FA Cups and two Premier League Cups.
"We'll see, but it's like a normal player, then I'll make a choice. So, it's the same. I think he's going to be absent, this week he's out," Amorim said.
