Manchester United Hope Marcus Rashford Will Be Fit to Face Liverpool

Manchester United hope Marcus Rashford will be fit to play against Liverpool on 22 November, after he has been out injured since mid-October. A report by The Telegraph says his return before the match is now possible, though his fitness has not yet been confirmed.

According to the report, Rashford visited a hip injury specialist in Dublin last week and began a new recovery plan. The problem started with a hip injury he sustained during the World Cup, then extended to the upper thigh area. The player had offered to sit on the bench against Chelsea, but the club did not agree.

Rashford returned to Manchester United in the summer after spending last season on loan at Barcelona, where he contributed 14 goals and the same number of assists as Barcelona retained the La Liga title. The Spanish club did not make a permanent signing or arrange a new loan, while Rashford has scored seven goals in 20 matches against Liverpool.
