Solskjaer Speaks On Rashford Substitution And Fitness Update

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has provided a fitness update on Marcus Rashford following the Red Devils’ 2-1 comeback win over Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League.

The Old Trafford side went behind early through a Danny Welbeck header, but they levelled the proceedings shortly after the hour mark through Marcus Rashford.

Mason Greenwood delivered the winning goal in the 83rd minute with his first-ever headed goal for the Red Devils as they boosted their top four prospects.

Rashford was substituted in the 72nd minute with suggestions that he may be short of fitness after recovering from a recent injury.

However, speaking after the game, Solskjaer highlighted that the forward suffered a knock, and hinted that he could be assessed ahead of the Granada clash.

He told Manutd.com: “I’m not sure. He got caught with a tackle so he had to come off.”

“Let’s see how he goes again. Marcus doesn’t want to miss any games or any minutes, but he had to come off.”
