# Manchester United: Fans want to see Marcus Rashford rested during international break

**England’s medical team will keep a close eye on the fitness of Marcus Rashford in the run-up to their Euro 2020 qualifier against Czech Republic on Friday, even though the Manchester United forward has declared himself fit for the game.**

The [Daily Mail](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7548005/England-medics-closely-monitor-Marcus-Rashfords-fitness-ahead-Czech-Republic-clash.html) reported that the 21-year-old completed an indoor training session at St George’s Park on Monday and is set to begin full training from today, following the groin injury he incurred in his club’s 0-2 defeat to West Ham last month. The news was relayed to followers of the [@utdxtra](https://twitter.com/utdxtra/status/1181326911064162304) Twitter account.

Despite going off injured at London Stadium a couple of weeks ago, Rashford has played in each of Manchester United’s last three matches, featuring for the entirety of their Premier League games against Arsenal and Newcastle. \[[via TransferMarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/marcus-rashford/leistungsdaten/spieler/258923)\]

He goes into the international break on a barren run of form, with just [one goal in his last nine games](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/marcus-rashford/leistungsdaten/spieler/258923) for his club, that a [penalty against Leicester](https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/49617987) nearly a month ago.

These Manchester United fans on Twitter are hoping that Rashford will be given a breather during the international break:

> The lads desire to play for club and country is absolutely unbelievable but he desperately needs the 2 weeks to rest and recover get some of his own training in…
