Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says Marcus Rashford has gone away to "reflect" on whether to have surgery at the end of the month.
Forward Rashford saw a specialist last week and feels an operation is the only way of dealing with a shoulder problem that has troubled him for seven months.
However, it appears Solskjaer and his staff are not as convinced.
Speaking after United's 2-1 pre-season win at Derby, Solskjaer said a final decision is still to be taken.
"Marcus went away to reflect on it a little bit," said the United boss.
