Pogba, Rashford to Be Ready for Man United; Ighalo's Loan Terms Complicate His Status

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford are expected to be available for Manchester United whenever the Premier League is allowed to resume after the suspension caused by the coronavirus outbreak.

Whether United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can call upon Odion Ighalo remains to be seen, however.

Rashford, United’s top scorer, and Pogba, the club’s most high-profile player, were both sidelined with long-term injuries at the time play was halted in England.

English soccer leaders are in talks about a potential return in June, and Solskjaer said Rashford and Pogba would be ready.

“For them two, this gives them a chance to start on a par with, or even ahead of, other players if or when we get going,” Solskjaer told Sky Sports.
