The 25-year-old England international left the field holding his groin during the second half of United’s win over Everton on Saturday.

Rashford, who has scored 28 times this season, has played in all of United’s league games.

His side play Sevilla in the Europa League quarter-final first leg on Thursday at Old Trafford.

“The forward was withdrawn in the 80th minute of Saturday’s 2-0 Premier League win over Everton at Old Trafford and immediately headed to the dressing room for treatment,” United said.
