Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has provided an update on the fitness of forward Marcus Rashford ahead of the club’s Europa League quarter-final against Sevilla.
Ten Hag confirmed that Rashford is currently suffering from a muscle injury, but reassured fans that it is not as serious as initially feared. He stated that the England international would only miss a few games, and that he is “not totally broke”.
The news will come as a relief to United fans, who had feared the worst when Rashford was forced off during the club’s Premier League match against Wolves last week. The injury had been described as “significant” by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the club’s manager at the time, leading to speculation that Rashford could be out for an extended period.
However, Ten Hag has now allayed those fears, and it appears that Rashford may not be out for too long. This is good news for United, who are already missing several key players due to injury, including Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay.
Ten Hag also confirmed that Rashford would not be available for the club’s Europa League quarter-final against Sevilla on Thursday. However, he did not rule out the possibility of the forward returning for the semi-finals, should United progress.
In the meantime, Ten Hag will be hoping that United can cope without Rashford in the short-term. The club have been in good form since he took over, and will be looking to continue their impressive run of results against Sevilla.
Despite the absence of Rashford, Ten Hag will be confident that his side can progress to the semi-finals of the Europa League. The manager has already shown his ability to get the best out of his players, and will be hoping to do so again on Thursday.
