Rashford will be hoping to impress new manager Ruben Amorim when he returns to Manchester.
The Portuguese boss is the replacement for the sacked Erik ten Hag.
Amorim has been quick at work setting himself up ahead of his first match against Ipswich Town at Portman Road.
He has axed Ruud van Nistelrooy from the coaching side despite the Dutchman being undefeated as a caretaker.
Rashford has also been handed an olive branch by incoming England manager Thomas Tuchel.
We exclusively revealed that the German has spoken to the forward and insisted that he is wanted in the national set-up.
Forgotten England stars could benefit from Tuchel appointment
WITH Thomas Tuchel announced as the next England manager, a few forgotten stars might be hopeful of a return to the international set up.
The former Chelsea and Bayern Munich manager usually uses a 3-4-3 formation.
That could provide an opening for Mason Mount, who’s not been involved in the England set-up since the World Cup in 2022.
The now Manchester United star enjoyed his most successful spell under Tuchel while the pair were at Stamford Bridge.
Tuchel could also offer lifelines to other previously capped players such as Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Eric Dier.
RLC has excelled since his move to AC Milan and with England struggling to find a partner for Rice, he could be the surprise answer.
Meanwhile, Dier played for Tuchel at Bayern Munich as part of a back-three last season.
The defender did enough to convince the club to make his loan move permanent after he had fallen out of favour at Tottenham.
