Erik ten Hag provides injury update on Rashford & McTominay ahead of Bournemouth trip

Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has provided an injury update on two players ahead of the Premier League clash at Bournemouth.

The Red Devils played out a 2-2 draw against Liverpool at Old Trafford last weekend. They were completely outclassed in the opening half but delivered a terrific response.

The club could have won the game had Aaron Wan-Bissaka not conceded a penalty.

Speaking in today’s presser, the manager revealed that Marcus Rashford trained yesterday. The €60 million-rated star will be assessed again following today’s session.

The Dutchman was less optimistic over Scott McTominay’s availability. The Scot suffered a knee problem at Chelsea and Ten Hag said he is very doubtful for the game.

He told Manutd.com: “Rashy trained yesterday and [we will] see how he recovered from it today. We will have training again today and then we will make a decision on it.”

“Scott? I don’t think so. We have training, so we have a day and he will push. He is so keen to be part of it tomorrow, but I think it is very questioning.”

United are currently 11 points adrift of the top four and they need a huge turnaround in the next seven games to qualify for the Champions League next season.

Irrespective of this, the Red Devils need to end the campaign on a strong note. They have the chance to go on a winning streak to bring some joy to the fans.

The club will be aiming to avenge a 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford when they face the Cherries tomorrow.

The players will need to be at their best as Andoni Iraola’s side are currently on a three-match winning run at the Vitality Stadium, scoring seven goals in the process.
