Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford could make a swift return to action, at the perfect time.
Erik ten Hag was quoted by The Athletic stating Rashford could be fit to feature in the second leg.
He said: “There is a chance but I can’t confirm it in this moment.”
So your telling us there’s a chance…
Rashford would lift United
Manchester United coped well without Marcus Rashford last night from an attacking perspective.
But even so, it would be fantastic to see him back. The second leg against Sevilla will be tricky and United’s makeshift defence will be under pressure.
Rashford can help relieve some of that by adding to the attacking threat.
Even if he is just used as a substitute, he will scare Sevilla, and could have a game-turning role from the bench with his pace and goalscoring ability.
Rashford is United’s top scorer with 28 goals for the season. His return will have wider implications too.
Days after the trip to Seville, Manchester United will face Brighton in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley.
It appears from Ten Hag’s comments that Marcus Rashford has a chance to return for this major game too.
