Marcus Rashford has rubbished claims he wants to leave Manchester United as he struggles for playing time under Ralf Rangnick.
The England international's form has taken a massive dip this season with the forward on the fringes of Rangnick's side since the interim boss arrived at the club.
Rashford was left on the bench on derby day - which Gary Neville reckons was the "ultimate putdown" for the striker - as the Red Devils suffered a disappointing 4-1 defeat by Manchester City.
Reports claimed in the wake of the game that Rashford was weighing up his Old Trafford future due to his lack of game-time.
But Mirror Football understands he is not happy with suggestions he is looking to leave the club.

The forward is frustrated at not starting more games, but those close to him say he understands that is down to his current poor form, something he knows he must address.
Rashford is under contract until the summer of 2023, although the club have an option to extend it by a year, something they will likely exercise to protect the forward's market value.
Rashford has started just two of United's last 11 Premier League games and came off the bench in Sunday's derby defeat at the Etihad despite Cristiano Ronaldo and Edinson Cavani missing through injury.
Rangnick opted to start Anthony Elanga out wide, with Jadon Sancho on the opposite flank, as Bruno Fernandes operated as a 'false nine'.
And Neville reckons it has to be the "ultimate putdown" for Rashford that he couldn't find a way into the starting line-up with Cavani, Ronaldo and Mason Greenwood unavailable, as well as Anthony Martial being on loan at Sevilla.
"That's got to be the ultimate put down for Marcus Rashford today," Neville said.
"With four other centre forwards he started the season with not here and he still can't get into the side. It tells you where Rashford is at, where Rangnick thinks he is at."
Neville initially criticised Rangnick's unorthodox set-up against City but reckons the Red Devils actually looked worse when Jesse Lingard and Rashford came on as substitutes.
"I thought they (United) were better with Pogba and Fernandes up front than they were when Rashford came on," the Old Trafford legend told Sky Sports.
"I thought they were even worse when Rashford and Lingard came on. I thought they were terrible."
Neville added: "What I would say is when he changed it to a more traditional system and brought Rashford on put Lingard out on the right and Sancho to the left, that was worse."
