Manchester United are anxiously awaiting updates on the fitness of Marcus Rashford and Jonny Evans as they gear up to face Everton at Old Trafford this weekend. The duo were forced to leave the field during United’s recent defeat to Manchester City, with Rashford having scored the opening goal before they ultimately fell short.
With two consecutive losses in the league, United find themselves in sixth place and are in need of a turnaround. Meanwhile, Everton enters the match winless in their last 10 games after a disappointing loss to West Ham United.
Following the City game, coach Erik ten Hag expressed uncertainty about Rashford and Evans’ availability for the upcoming clash against Everton. He acknowledged their efforts to play through injury but ultimately had to substitute them due to their physical limitations.
As they work on their recovery, ten Hag remains hopeful that both players will be back in action after the international break. While the extent of their injuries is unknown, the coach emphasized the importance of having Rashford and Evans ready for the crucial match against Everton.
Despite the setbacks, ten Hag praised the performances of both players and their contributions to the team’s defensive organization. He hopes to have them back on the field soon to strengthen United’s squad and improve their results in the league.
