Further tests will be done to establish the severity of Rashford’s injury but it is not anticipated that he will need surgery.

Marcus Rashford has reportedly suffered a hamstring injury which is expected to keep him sidelined through the end of the Premier League season. The Briton has impressed for Aston Villa since joining on loan from Manchester United in January, scoring four goals and assisting a further six in 17 appearances.

Boss Unai Emery said on Saturday that the on-loan Manchester United striker was likely to be out for “some weeks”.
