Recently, British media revealed details about Manchester United's starting lineup for their match against Manchester City a full 20 hours in advance. Notably, striker Marcus Rashford was unexpectedly absent from the roster.

The issue of lineup leaks is not new for the "Red Devils." Over the years, there have been multiple instances where players or individuals associated with the club have disclosed information externally. However, due to the significance of this particular Manchester derby, it has sparked widespread discussion and concern among fans and analysts alike.

In his statement on the club's website, Ruben Amorim addressed the situation, stating, "I am aware of the story, but unfortunately, we cannot address it immediately because many people within the club and the players communicate with representatives. They can talk to friends, making it difficult track down these leaks, and clearly, this is not a positive development."

Another notable point is the absence of Alejandro Garnacho, who faced the same fate as Marcus Rashford. According to sources from Manchester United, the reason for the Argentine winger's absence during the away game at Etihad Stadium is unrelated to allegations that his brother Roberto may have leaked information about the "Red Devils".
