Manchester United star Marcus Rashford has made his feelings clear on Thomas Tuchel’s England appointment.
Tuchel has been appointed England manager, having signed an 18-month contract.
The German-born boss will begin work with the Three Lions on January 1, 2025.
Ahead of Tuchel naming his first England squad, fans are convinced Rashford will be included, having failed to make Gareth Southgate‘s Euro 2024 party.
Rashford has seemingly backed the appointment of the 51-year-old gaffer based on his social media activity.
He ‘liked’ England’s post announcing Tuchel as their manager on Instagram – an indication that he approves of the hire.

Rashford not only missed out on this summer’s Euro 2024 but also Lee Carsley’s two England squads for Nations League clashes.
But he could return to the international fold in the near future, with Tuchel a big fan of the 26-year-old forward.
Speaking before Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League tie against Man United, the former Chelsea boss praised the player’s character and skill-set.
“We value him a lot more when he’s playing in England and not in Parc des Princes honestly because it can get a little bit annoying with him,” he joked.
“The guy is a very young adult who takes his responsibility off and on the pitch which is honestly very impressive.
“I’ve met him three times as an opponent and I meet a calm guy, I meet a humble guy which is amazing because I like this mixture a lot.”
Tuchel added: “On a sporting side, it is clear he is a big threat with his speed and his ability to score with his precision in finishing and his determination and his quality.
“He is so precise with his finishing both outside and inside the box, he is super rapid on counterattacks and is strong in the air from headers.”
Rashford will be hoping to add to his 60 international caps once Tuchel officially takes charge of England.
