Manchester United are reportedly fearful that Marcus Rashford could be out for a number of weeks with an injury against Everton on Saturday.
The 25-year-old has been in top form for the Red Devils this season, scoring 28 goals and contributing 10 assists in 47 games across all competitions.
Rashford did not score against Everton at Old Trafford, but he did provide an assist for Anthony Martial, who converted a cross from the Englishman.
However, the Red Devils academy product was substituted in the 81st minute of the Premier League match, and he immediately rushed down the tunnel to receive treatment for what appeared to be a groin issue.
According to The Sun, Manchester United will be without Rashford for Thursday’s Europa League semi-final first leg against Sevilla at Old Trafford.
However, there is said to be a serious fear that the Englishman could be out for a number of weeks, which would be a major setback for a team currently seeking silverware in three competitions.
Man United are in the quarter-finals of the Europa League and the semi-finals of the FA Cup, and they can still win the Premier League despite being fourth in the table, 17 points behind leaders Arsenal.
After the match against Everton, Red Devils head coach Erik ten Hag expressed concern about the potential seriousness of the problem at this stage of the season.

The Man United players have not been at Carrington for the last two days, but they will return on Tuesday to prepare for the match against Sevilla.
As a result, Rashford’s injury will be properly assessed on Tuesday, with Ten Hag expected to deliver an update during his press conference on Wednesday.
