Manchester United have welcomed Marcus Rashford back to training ahead of this week’s game against Chelsea.
Marcus Rashford is back in training for Manchester United after missing Saturday’s win over Bournemouth.
Rashford has actually missed the last two matches, for different reasons. He sustained an injury which saw him absent for the win over Wolves at Old Trafford, before returning to training last week.
The England international then suffered a bout of illness which caused him to miss the Bournemouth game.
Marcus Rashford back in training
Manchester United have confirmed Marcus Rashford is back in first team training, with the forward pictured back at Carrington with his teammates.
Rashford is Manchester United’s top scorer for the season with 29 goals, and time is running out for him to reach the 30-mark.
United host Chelsea on Thursday night at Old Trafford and then Fulham on Sunday to round off the Premier League season.
The Red Devils require just one point from the remaining two matches to secure a Champions League place.
Newcastle’s draw with Leicester last night means two wins will see Manchester United clinch third place, a £2.2 million prize money difference over fourth.
At a guess, I would expect Rashford to go straight back into United’s starting line-up against Chelsea, considering he had only missed the last game through illness.
Erik ten Hag may play cautious though, with one eye on the FA Cup final against Manchester City on June 3.
