Man Utd striker Rashford facing England axe

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford is set to be dropped from the England squad.

He has fallen down the pecking order at club level with Manchester United and has not started a Premier League game since the 1-1 draw with Southampton on February 12.

ESPN reports that he is set to be dropped for England's friendlies against Switzerland and the Ivory Coast this month, as his slump in form continues.

The 24-year-old has not worn an England shirt since Euro 2020 after undergoing surgery on his shoulder.

However, he did score on his return to action during Manchester United's 4-2 loss to Leicester in October.

It looked as though Rashford had picked up right where he had left off - despite the fact he had not played football since August.

Although, it didn't last long as Rashford found himself falling further down the pecking order under Manchester United manager Ralf Rangnick.
