England have released Marcus Rashford back to Manchester United.

Rashford, 23, reported for England duty this week with a knock after he was forced off in United's Europa League win at Milan.

He missed the club's FA Cup defeat to Leicester on Sunday and also sat out his country's 5-0 win over San Marino yesterday.

The ace's injury has been further assessed at St George's Park with his national manager Southgate remaining hopeful he would be fit in time to face Albania and Poland.

However, the FA have now announced that he will head back to United to continue his rehabilitation.
