This Sunday, Manchester United faces Newport County in the FA Cup. A meeting in which Marcus Rashford (26 years old) is not sure to participate, because he is officially ill. On the other hand, the English tabloids report that the England international (59 caps) was seen in a nightclub near Bristol on Wednesday evening and in the city’s bars, Thursday being an off day for the Red Devils. And while he was expected to return to training on Friday, he was not present.

Mancunian technician Eric Ten Hag said the striker was “sick”, just like Johnny Evans. In England, the media are wondering about the nature of his illness, if it is linked to his nocturnal trip in the middle of the week. A new extra-sporting affair for Rashford this season.
