Manchester United could be without Marcus Rashford in their crucial tie against Bournemouth at the Vitality stadium.
The forward missed the win over Wolves last Saturday due to a leg injury. Although he trained all week and was supposed to be available before getting down with sickness.
As per reports from Belfast Telegraph, manager Erik ten Hag said: “Rashy trained well the whole week but today he reported he doesn’t feel well, so he is ill. We have to see how he recovers during the day and then see tomorrow.”
United’s chances of qualifying for the UEFA Champions League are currently in the balance, thanks to losses against Brighton and West Ham. With Liverpool’s impressive season-ending performance. Before the win over Wolves at Old Trafford.
They have a game in hand over their major opponents and a one-point edge. But they cannot afford any more mistakes.
Ten Hag need only look across the city to see the level that United are aiming to reach again. But he is aware that everything depends on finishing in the top four.

“When I see this project, first of all it’s important to get in the Champions League,” he said. “I don’t think today at that standard, I look to the next game, and that’s Bournemouth.
“We have to win that game to get in the Champions League. We have everything in our hands so focus on the game, the games coming up, the first game is the most important.”
For much of the season, Bournemouth were towards the bottom of the standings. But they have brilliantly recovered, boasting incredible wins over Tottenham and Liverpool.
