Sevilla head coach Jose Luis Mendilibar admits Marcus Rashford is 'one of the best players nowadays' but insists his side WON'T change their game plan if the Manchester United forward returns in time for their Europa League second leg clash

Sevilla head coach Jose Luis Mendilibar believes Marcus Rashford is 'one of the best players' around but says his potential return will not alter their approach against Manchester United.

The 25-year-old has recovered from a difficult campaign in stunning fashion, scoring 28 goals in all competitions before pulling up injured against Everton 11 days ago.

Rashford missed last week's chaotic, and potentially costly, 2-2 first-leg draw with Sevilla in the Europa League quarter-finals but there is a chance he will return in Spain on Thursday.

The England international trained with his team-mates ahead of the trip to Seville, where he scored a stunner as United won 1-0 at city rivals Real Betis in the previous round.
