In the statement released by the club, it was stated: “Marcus has taken responsibility for his actions. This has been dealt with as an internal disciplinary matter, which is now closed.”

With the internal disciplinary matter resolved, Rashford has returned to training and is once again available for selection.

Manchester United is set to face Wolves on Thursday, with Rashford expected to be part of the squad for the upcoming fixture.
