Impact Rashford appears to have overcome the minor issue that forced him to withdraw from the England squad during the international break, with manager Carrick's latest comments suggesting he is ready to return to competitive action. The forward has recently been deployed on the left wing and could retain his starting role against Tottenham, particularly with Patrick Dorgu (hamstring) still out. However, Rashford is still searching for his first goal contribution of the 2026/27 Premier League campaign and will be looking to make a greater impact in the final third as United resume league action.

Hopeful to play against Tottenham Rashford (strain) has continued his recovery from a minor knock and is expected to be available to face Tottenham after the break, Oli Gent of The Standard reports.

Impact Rashford should be able to avoid a significant concern, potentially staying in the starting lineup for his club after withdrawing from the England national team. The forward has played on the left flank lately, and he's likely to get increased responsibilities on that flank especially if Patrick Dorgu (hamstring) remains out. However, Rashford is still looking for his first goal or assist in the 2026/27 Premier League campaign.

Impact Rashford's withdrawal comes after he picked up an undisclosed issue during Sunday's draw against Fulham, when he recorded six shots and created four chances before being forced off. Manchester United have not provided further details on the injury, but the forward will use the three-week international break to recover and is expected to be available against Tottenham on Oct. 10. Rashford had been a regular part of manager Michael Carrick's attack before the setback and should remain a prominent option once cleared to return.

Impact Rashford had looked threatening throughout the match, hurt in the first half while making a run down the left flank and later floored by a challenge that earned Timothy Castagne a yellow card. Manager Michael Carrick praised his overall performance and Rashford was named in England's squad for the upcoming Nations League matches, giving his fitness added significance heading into the international break.

Service machine Rashford generated three shots (zero on goal), seven crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-0 loss versus Manchester City.

Impact Rashford was on the field for most of Sunday's loss and would see some solid work, recording three shots and seven crosses. However, he would fail to earn a goal or an assist, still without a goal contribution in four appearances (three starts) this campaign. After bagging 15 in 32 appearances with Barcelona last season, United fans and Rashford himself will expect him to get on the board soon.

Makes bench Thursday Rashford (undisclosed) is on the bench for Thursday's game against Sabah.

Impact Rashford trained Wednesday ahead of this UCL opener, so seeing him on the bench is not surprising. Manager Michael Carrick has chosen to deploy Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko and Matheus Cunha in the front three, but Rashford could see minutes off the bench in what figures to be a favorable matchup for the Red Devils.

Trains ahead of Sabah clash Rashford (undisclosed) took part in Manchester United's team training at Carrington on Wednesday ahead of Thursday's Champions League clash against Sabah, according to Rob Dawson.

Impact Rashford had emerged as a fitness concern after feeling discomfort and being withdrawn in the 70th minute of Sunday's 2-2 draw against Everton, but his participation in Wednesday's session is an encouraging sign. Having started United's last two Premier League matches, Rashford should remain a strong candidate for the starting XI if fully cleared. If Rashford is instead limited to a bench role, Benjamin Sesko could come into the XI through the middle, allowing Matheus Cunha to shift to the left wing.

Leaves in pain Sunday Rashford left the field in the 70th minute of Sunday's 2-2 draw against Everton, after which manager Michael Carrick commented "Yeah, he was feeling a bit of something".

Impact Rashford could be a doubt for the midweek UCL clash against Sabah if he's not fully fit in the coming days. While the extent of his potential absence is still unknown, this situation adds to the worries of a side that is also awaiting Amad Diallo's (undisclosed recovery. The United boss also highlighted Rashford's creative effort during the last match even though he was unable to make the score sheet for the third game in a row. If both him and Diallo are unavailable for upcoming games, Patrick Dorgu will be in line for increased playing time on the left wing, with the inclusion of Sunday's scorer Benjamin Sesko offering another alternative, in which case Matheus Cunha would move to the flank.

Impact Rashford showed flashes of his best form throughout, dribbling past multiple defenders and linking up well with Luke Shaw down the left, and has now created seven chances this season, trailing only Chelsea's Morgan Rogers among Premier League players. With Barcelona having declined to trigger their buy option, he now looks set to stay at United beyond the transfer deadline, settling into a more supporting role alongside Bruno Fernandes, Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo rather than being the focal point he once was.

His training involvement suggests he remains available for selection, although his longer-term club situation stays unresolved with Carrick avoiding questions about the forward's continuity in the squad. He's currently expected to serve as a substitute behind Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo, and his involvement in the first few fixtures of the season might depend on how well he can perform in limited minutes of play.
