United’s Rashford fit to start against Southampton

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has confirmed that striker Marcus Rashford is fit enough to start against Southampton on Saturday, as reported on the Manchester Evening News.

Rashford was forced to play with an injury against Liverpool last weekend and after further tests, he was deemed fit enough for the bench in midweek against Crystal Palace.

He was brought on by Solskjaer towards the end of the game at Selhurst Park and the manager has now hinted that he could return to the starting lineup tomorrow.

He said:

He (Rashford) still felt it Wednesday night but he’ll be ready, I’ll probably start him.

The Saints go into the game after a morale-boosting victory over Fulham at the St Mary’s Stadium in midweek.

They face a tough task to come away from Old Trafford with a positive result as United have not lost a game since Solskjaer took over as interim manager.
