Rashford’s Performance amid transfer speculation as United secure victory

United proceeded to deliver one of their standout performances of the season, with a rejuvenated team, bolstered by the return of key players, securing a predominantly dominant 3-2 victory over Eddie Howe’s side.
Rashford later entered the game as United aimed to fortify their lead, amidst speculation linking him with a potential departure from Old Trafford in the summer.
Enduring a challenging season, the England forward has managed just eight goals in 41 appearances, placing his spot in England’s upcoming European Championship squad in jeopardy.
