Due to a handful of players testing positive for the virus, United’s last two matches, against Brentford and Brighton, have been postponed, but Marcus Rashford has disclosed that practically everyone is back at Carrington.
“We’ve basically got the entire squad back, which is a positive heading into the week.” In other news, Ralf Rangnick has hired Ewan Sharp as an assistant coach and analyst to round out his coaching group.
