Erik ten Hag confirms huge fitness boost for Man Utd ahead of Everton clash
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has confirmed both Marcus Rashford and Jonny Evans will be available for Saturday's clash with Everton, as he prepares to welcome back a whole host of injured stars.
Both Rashford and Evans limped off during last weekend's defeat to Manchester City, heading into a treatment room which has been overflowing in recent weeks.
However, Ten Hag has confirmed neither suffered anything serious and both Rashford and Evans will be back in the ranks on Saturday lunchtime for Everton's trip to Old Trafford.
"That is the good news, they [Evans and Rashford] recovered after the derby," Ten Hag said. "So they are available.
"For the rest it is the same squad, apart from Omari Forson. He dropped out. He has an injury."

While United's injury woes remain extensive, Ten Hag expects the problems to ease soon as a handful of star players approach their returns.
"For next week I think some players are planning to return," he continued. "So when the process will continue like now.
"Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka I expect to be back for our Game against Liverpool. [Rasmus] Hojlund [is] similar, yeah."
Ten Hag also expects midfielder Mason Mount back from injury after the March international break, but Tyrell Malacia, Anthony Martial, Lisandro Martinez and Luke Shaw remain absent from the Dutchman's squad.
