Marcus Rashford is hopeful of a return to contact training soon as the Manchester United and England forward continues his recovery from shoulder surgery.
Rashford is yet to play this season, having undergone an operation on his shoulder last month.
The 23-year-old posted a message on Twitter that read: “Happy Monday. I see the doctor on Friday for a consultation.
Happy Monday. I see the doctor on Friday for a consultation. All being well, I will get the green to join in with contact training again.

“All being well, I will get the green to join in with contact training again.”
Having played with a shoulder issue for much of last season, Rashford decided after being part of England’s Euro 2020 campaign that he would have surgery.
The operation took place on August 6th with Rashford saying four days later that “everything went well”.
He has missed eight matches in all competitions so far this term for United, who host Villarreal in the Champions League on Wednesday then Everton in the Premier League three days later.
Thank you for all the well wishes. I had my surgery on Friday morning and everything went very well. A little sore but other than that I’m feeling good. Hope you’re all having a great day! ♥️ pic.twitter.com/cUZQpS0wIi
