Ole Gunnar Solskjaer sets return date for Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford
Marcus Rashford is set to make his Manchester United debut against Leicester City after the international break, according to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Rashford has yet to play this season after having shoulder surgery in August.
The forward has returned to training and had his first contact session with his Manchester United teammates on Friday.
And, according to Solskjaer, Rashford will make his comeback against Leicester City on October 16.
“I hope he will be involved against Leicester,” said Solskjaer.
“He’s been training and physically working really hard, joining in with the group as a floater so no tackles on him.
“Today was the first day he could be tackled and that’s happened so let’s hope he gets his bearings, finds his movements.
“There are many, many reasons he could be involved against Leicester.”
United were also handed a boost on Friday as Luke Shaw was included in Solskjaer’s matchday squad for their Premier League fixture against Everton on Saturday.
