One Manchester United star has reportedly spoken about his future after a poor start to the 24/25 season.
It has been another disappointing start to the campaign for the Red Devils after a dismal run of poor form.
Currently, Erik ten Hag’s men are 14th in the Premier League table and have also made a poor start to their UEFA Europa League campaign.
In addition, United are five matches without a win since their 7-0 Carabao Cup victory over League One side Barnsley.
As a result, questions have been raised on whether Ten Hag remains the right man to lead the Old Trafford club forward.

On Friday afternoon, it was reported by Bold that midfielder Christian Eriksen is yet to begin talks with United over a new contract.
The Dane's contract is set to expire at the end of the 24/25 season and will be free to speak to foreign clubs when the January transfer window opens.
Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano wrote on social media: "Christian Eriksen to @EkstraBladet on whether he is in talks with Manchester United over the end of his contract in 2025: “No, we are not there yet”."

Eriksen was criticised by United legend Roy Keane over comments he made after the team’s 1-1 draw against FC Twente.
The Dane said: “In the end, it was far from good enough. It was just said in the dressing room... it looked like they wanted it more than us and that can't be right.”
Keane blasted: “Eriksen's an experienced international player. Vastly experienced. He's back in the United team in the last few weeks because the manager says he's doing well in training. He's coming out after the game a couple of weeks ago, and he actually said [they wanted it more].
"Even if you feel that and it hasn't happened where you felt than you, you don't bloody say it, do you? You fool.”

He added: “Someone should get a grip of him and say, 'Why are you sending messages about us for?' I'd be disgusted if I came in after a game and I felt another team wanted it more than us.
“You try to make sure that doesn't even cross anyone's mind. The pressure, the expectation, enjoy all of that stuff.”
