Manchester United have been told to cut ties with forward Marcus Rashford, who was left out of the squad for the Manchester Derby.
Rashford was surprisingly left out of the squad along with Alejandro Garnacho on Sunday evening, despite both players being fit.
Former United defender Paul Parker feels the Red Devils need to put the striker out of his misery.

"Any other player, it would have been done and dusted by now," Parker told Betfair.
"It's been going on for too long. Most other players would have been put out of their misery and one of the saddest things in football is seeing talent go to waste because the player can't be bothered. That's what's happening with Marcus Rashford."
"He's 27 now and you can't keep switching it on and off. He can't be called a kid.
"He's supposed to be a mature player now that leads his teammates along the way, especially because he's a local lad. If you ask him to lead the way, I believe three-year-olds wouldn't even follow him at the moment.
"There's nothing about him that suggests he wants to be a footballer and a Manchester United player."
The Red Devils will be back in action on Thursday night when they take on Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup quarter-final.
