Thomas Tuchel has reportedly advised Marcus Rashford that he must fulfill his potential or risk ending his career regretting “what could have been”.
Rashford is now on loan at Barcelona in an effort to rekindle his career after Ruben Amorim ousted him from Manchester United due to his subpar training performance.
Despite not playing for the Three Lions since March 2024, he was called up to Tuchel’s first England squad in the spring and made a brief appearance against Wales last week.

However according to The Irish Independent, the German has now issued a warning, saying he must use his talent or risk falling short of his ceiling.
“It’s not a question of talent, it’s a question of whether he can prove the point at club and international level,” Tuchel explained ahead of England’s World Cup qualifier against Latvia.
“Otherwise, he will be disappointed in 10 years at what could have been and what he made of it.
“I think the limit for him is very, very high. Maybe higher than for others.
“He has the potential – but potential is a dangerous word with high-level sports.
“You have to reach your personal best on a regular basis – that is what is demanded on this kind of level, and that is the challenge for him.”
Tuchel continued, adding Rashford has “no limits”, but that his output did not match his talent.
“He can be one of the best in the world because the quality I see in training, the finishing with both legs and with the head.
