Marcus Rashford 'back in training on Friday'

Marcus Rashford will reportedly return to training with England on Friday following a knee problem.

The Manchester United attacker did not train alongside his Three Lions teammates on Thursday, after picking up a knock before the flight to Russia.

The 20-year-old has played down concerns over the knee injury, but his absence from the main session on Thursday led to suggestions that he would struggle to be fit for Monday's World Cup opener against Tunisia.

However, according to Sky Sports News, Rashford will return to full training with England on Friday, and will be available on June 18 as the Three Lions kick off their tournament in Volgograd.

England will also take on Panama and Belgium in the group stage of this summer's competition, which hosts Russia opened with a 5-0 win over Saudi Arabia.
