Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag admits Marcus Rashford is a doubt for the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United.
Rashford sustained an ankle injury in the second half of United's 2-1 Europa League play-off win over Barcelona on Thursday night and was substituted in the 88th minute.
The 25-year-old has plundered 16 goals in his last 18 games and is United's highest scorer this term with 24 goals and will be assessed over the next 48 hours ahead of Sunday's final. Anthony Martial, who has not started a game since January 14 and last completed 90 minutes in January 2021, is still out with a hip injury.
"I don't know," Ten Hag said when asked if Rashford would recover. "Players are now coming in, we have to do investigations, medical, of course, yesterday we did. So straight after a game most of the time you can't say, you have to wait for a 100 per cent diagnosis. So let's do the medical, the work, we have to wait."
He added, "Sunday is a challenge again but totally different. It's also great to play them, to find a way to play against different styles, different systems. Every time you want to beat them, every time you want to find a good strategy and plan to beat opponents."
