Man United manager Jose Mourinho will find out whether or not Marcus Rashford will be added to the injury list at Old Trafford after he picked up a knock in the Manchester derby win on Wednesday.

The 18-year-old was hauled off eight minutes before time and appeared to have a problem with his thigh, and headed straight for the changing rooms after being subbed.

The United starlet will be assessed ahead by the clubs staff today (Thursday) in order to gauge the damage ahead of their Premier League game with Burnley on Saturday.

The Carrington academy graduate, who burst onto the scene under Louis Van Gaal, has been impressing once again this season, having bagged four goals in 12 outings for Mourinho’s side this term.

Should the England international be added to the injury list, he will add to the conundrum for the former Chelsea boss, with Eric Bailly, Chris Smalling, Wayne Rooney and Anthony Martial all sitting out the Man City win with injuries.
