'He'll definitely score soon': Ole Gunnar Solskjaer backs Marcus Rashford to start firing after a mini-drought three games without a goal for Manchester United striker since Premier League restart

Marcus Rashford is on course for his best season ever at Manchester United despite a subdued return from injury, says manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The Premier League shutdown has enabled Rashford to recover from a double back fracture that threatened to end his season prematurely.

But after making his comeback in the draw at Tottenham earlier this month, the England striker missed two good chances against Sheffield United and made little impact coming off the bench in Saturday’s FA Cup win at Norwich.

Marcus Rashford is yet to score in three games since making his comeback from a back injury

However, Rashford – who has earned widespread praise for his campaign to feed under-privileged kids during the pandemic – already has 19 goals to his name and Solskjaer is happy with the player’s season overall.
