Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has given a post-match update on the suspected injury suffered by Marcus Rashford after he limped off against Everton.

United's top goalscorer this season pulled up after controlling a long pass against the Toffees, before quickly gesturing towards his groin area.

After receiving treatment from the physio, Rashford limped off the pitch and went straight down the tunnel.

Wout Weghorst replaced him for the final 10 minutes of the game, which United won 2-0.

Rashford again showed his importance to Ten Hag's side during the match, setting up Anthony Martial to score the second goal of a contest that United dominated for much of the 90 minutes.

But his substitution will cause plenty of concern at Old Trafford, with a busy schedule coming up including the conclusion of the league season and a Europa League quarter-final against Sevilla.

Ten Hag gives Rashford update

Speaking after the win to BT Sport, Ten Hag was asked whether he could provide an update on the suspected injury suffered by Rashford.

The Dutchman replied: "We have to wait - it doesn't look well.

"It's due to the schedule - it can't be that you play three games in six days. We have to protect our players. Everyone wants their best players out on the pitch. Everyone wants to see entertaining football like today - but you have to have your best players."

In the studio, former Everton and England midfielder Leon Osman gave his thoughts on what an injury absence for Rashford could mean for the side: "The injury to Marcus Rashford will be a concern, with those huge cup games coming up.

"Sevilla [at Old Trafford], where you need to be positive, and you need your goalscorers to be at their very best. He's been by far United's best player this season. So you don't want to miss him in this crucial run-in, you don't want to miss him in April.

"They'll hope for the best, they'll hope this is, at best a touch of cramp, at worst a 10-day injury."
