Marcus Rashford has made his return to training in preparation for Manchester United’s upcoming Champions League match against Copenhagen.
Rashford was absent from United’s recent 1-0 victory over Fulham due to a failed fitness test. Despite travelling with the team, he couldn’t recover in time after sustaining a significant injury during training.
However, Rashford’s comeback to full training has provided a significant boost for United’s manager, Erik ten Hag. Also seen at the training session was defender Victor Lindelof, who had missed the Fulham game due to illness.
In their upcoming fixture against Copenhagen, United is looking to secure a win after their first victory in the group stage against the Danish side at Old Trafford two weeks ago.
Ten Hag’s team faced setbacks with losses in their initial two group matches against Bayern Munich and Galatasaray but regained momentum with a 1-0 victory over Copenhagen, featuring a dramatic last-minute penalty save by Andre Onana.
Rashford had recently stirred controversy by publicly celebrating his birthday shortly after United’s loss to Pep Guardiola’s champions in the Manchester derby. Ten Hag criticized these actions as “unacceptable” but clarified that they were not the cause of Rashford’s absence during the Craven Cottage clash.
Gary Neville, a former United player, commented on the situation, drawing parallels to his own experiences during his career at Old Trafford. He mentioned that after a loss, not just a derby, any nights out were cancelled, emphasizing the importance of focusing on the game and maintaining a professional image.
