Marcus Rashford set for Man Utd return after adding 4kg of muscle and answering club's call to 'bulk up' to sustain Premier League's physicality after shoulder surgery as Ole Gunnar Solksjaer urges him to 'prioritise his football'

Marcus Rashford is ready to make his Premier League debut this season after answering Manchester United's calls to bulk up to protect his body from injuries.

The England international hasn't played for his club since United lost the Europa League final on penalties against Villarreal on May 26, but will be available when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men travel to Leicester this afternoon.

The 23-year-old underwent shoulder surgery in August and cut a more imposing figure as he returned to full training last week, following a two-month rehabilitation.
