Rashford Doubtful Euro 2020 — Solskjaer

By Daily Sports on February 20, 2020

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has cast doubt on Marcus Rashford's hopes of playing for Manchester United again this season, and even suggested he could miss this summer's European Championships.

Rashford has already missed a month after suffering a double stress fracture in his back and Solskjaer said the striker, who has scored 19 goals this season, will spend more time on the sidelines because his recovery is taking longer than expected.

"I would hope he's playing this season but it will be touch and go towards the end," Solskjaer told a news conference ahead of the Europa League tie with Club Brugge. "It takes time.

"I'm not a doctor, but I was hoping he would recover quicker than it actually looks like. He's going be out for another few months, definitely.

"He had a scan and it was maybe more severe, that fracture, than what we hoped for and expected."

Solskjaer also raised doubts about whether Rashford will be fit in time to feature at this summer's European Championships. England kick off their campaign against Croatia at Wembley on June 14.

“I would hope he plays before then but if he's not fit enough he won’t go,” the Norwegian added.

Scott McTominay and Axel Tuanzebe both trained at Carrington on Wednesday morning but did not make the trip to Belgium. Paul Pogba is still absent while he continues his recovery from an ankle injury in Dubai. (ESPN)
