Insiders allege that Manchester United officials were concerned about Marcus Rashford’s “party lifestyle” as early as the autumn of 2021.

Concerns were expressed regarding the star’s boozy nights out and boisterous house parties with friends.

Wayne Rooney decided to contact Marcus Rashford amid concerns about his ‘party lifestyle’.Old Trafford bosses were disturbed by troubling reports regarding Rashford’s behavior.

Wayne Rooney, who had previously experienced difficulties in his career, decided to contact his former teammate.

The Sun reports that Reds legends David Beckham and Rio Ferdinand have also been in contact.

Their involvement came after Old Trafford officials became concerned about a number of troubling claims about England international Rashford’s behavior.

And The Sun said that Rashford went on a 12-hour bender in Belfast last week before calling in sick for training on Friday.

He was benched for Sunday’s 4-2 FA Cup victory against Newport and will be fined two weeks of his £325,000 weekly salary.

He apologized for his behavior at a contentious meeting with manager Erik ten Hag and United’s director of football, John Murtough, on Monday.

The club stated that the problem has been resolved and that he will be considered for selection in tomorrow’s game against Wolves.

However, prior warning signs included Rashford’s bond with the fans, which is typically strong given his reputation as an academy graduate.

They suffered when he battled with an Old Trafford supporter who criticized his Champions League performance against Atletico Madrid.

He was accused of confronting the fan, shouting, “Who the f**k do you think you are, you silly c**t, come round the back and say it to my face”. He later disputed it.

Rooney, who, like Rashford, rose to prominence as a youth, was eager to help.

According to a source, the club was made aware of various matters that disturbed them. People around Marcus suggested that one approach could be to ask Wayne if he would be willing to contact Marcus directly and give assistance.

“Wayne was only too pleased to help. Marcus has always looked up to Wayne as one of his idols, so he was overjoyed to hear from him.”

Reds great David Beckham and Rio Ferdinand have also made touch with Rashford.Marcus Rashford’s romance with childhood sweetheart Lucia Loi ended, prompting Rooney, who was now the manager of Derby County, to call Rashford.

He encouraged Rashford and made it obvious that he was accessible if he ever needed his guidance.

In a 2023 interview with Gary Neville, Rashford expressed gratitude for Rooney’s assistance.

He stated, “I often think about how I can help other players the way particular players have helped me.

“I believe I’m in a good position to advise them in the start of their careers. I’m attempting to send them off in the correct direction, just as Wazza [Rooney], Carrars [Michael Carrick], and Juan [Juan Mata] did for me.”

Despite the encouragement shown to Rashford, others have expressed concern that his love of nightlife is negatively impacting his performance on the game.

The 26-year-old has been seen entering casinos, including Manchester’s 235 casino and Genting in the city’s Chinatown neighborhood.

Rashford is believed to have started playing poker at home with some of his Manchester United teammates before moving on to casinos to play in secret VIP rooms while drinking beer.

Customers at one casino crowded near the door to see him. According to a source, Marcus enjoys playing poker and has done so for many years. He might have a couple of bottles of beer — nothing insane — but he didn’t drink much before, so it wasn’t ideal.

“When Marcus was challenged about it, he would always push back and say it wasn’t an issue.”

Another insider stated, “Marcus enjoys the nightlife, but there are concerns that he has been engaging in it excessively. “His home has been a party house.”

His rocky relationship with childhood sweetheart Lucia Loi, 25, came to an end, which caused even more distress.

The couple met at Ashton-on-Mersey School when Rashford was a United Scholar.

According to a source, “Lucia is ideal for Marcus because she is a normal girl who knew him before all the money, cars, and jewelry.”

“When you strip back his personality he isn’t the most confident around women and has the same insecurities most people have.”

Supporting his extended family has also been a major concern for Rashford in recent times.

He is so close to brothers Dwaine and Dane that they all live in mansions on the same street, along with his mother Melanie.

However, Dane’s relationships have been put to the test following his arrest on charges of violence in October while on vacation in Miami with his boyfriend.

The police case was dismissed, but the fallout has forced Dwaine to put his house up for sale, causing tension among the family.

According to a source, “Marcus loves all of his family dearly but it is draining for him.”

Rashford has also purchased residences for extended family members, which has increased his stress levels because some demand him to provide more for them.

The source continued, “Marcus is truly struggling. Anyone who cares about him should step up and start assisting him, rather than expecting the other way around.

“He may be a wealthy football player, but he is a young man who has lost his way. The sooner he locates it, the better.”
