Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is supposedly close to a return to training after stepping up his recovery from injury.
The England international has been sidelined since January with a double stress fracture in his back, prior to which he had registered 14 goals in 22 Premier League appearances for the Red Devils.
However, according to The Sun, Rashford returned to United's training ground on Monday, where he spoke with club doctors and worked on his fitness levels in the Carrington gym.
The report suggests that the coronavirus outbreak has allowed Rashford significant time to recover from his back problem, and the forward has been permitted to visit the Carrington complex for treatment during the UK lockdown.
Recent reports have suggested that United are hoping to return to training next month, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side currently fifth in the table amid the league's postponement.
