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.

"Because they have been focused. Mentally it's easier for them to train hard now because they can see the light at the end of the tunnel."
"But of course with Marcus back, Bruno in, Paul back, you would expect us to be more exciting."
