​Man Utd striker Rashford 'blessed' to be back after injury

Manchester United star Marcus Rashford admits he is delighted at being fully fit.

The English attacker was set to miss the rest of the season before COVID-19 halted proceedings.

He got a chance to fully recover from his back injury, and is now in fine form alongside United's other attackers.

He scored a penalty in a 5-2 win over Bournemouth at the weekend.

"I want to say how blessed I feel to be back healthy," Rashford told reporters.

"I've had this injury before in the past but this time it was quite a bit worse than the ones I've had before.

"It was definitely difficult news to hear."
