MARCUS RASHFORD will return to Carrington for pre-season training on Monday – and expects to play a full part in their preparations for the new campaign.
The 27-year-old left Manchester United in January and spent five months on loan at Aston Villa after being sidelined by Ruben Amorim.

United now have a decision to make over whether to cash in on the England forward or try to reintegrate him into the squad.
If they are to move Rashford on again in the next few weeks, then it will require the forward to give his consent.
Bayern Munich and Barcelona are both monitoring his situation and could make a move in the coming weeks.
However, according to sources close to Rashford, he has no issue over returning to his boyhood club next week and will give 100 per cent in training.
