Marcus Rashford is back in the Manchester United squad for Monday's game against Newcastle at Old Trafford.

Rashford was named among the substitutes as United sought to avoid a fourth consecutive defeat in all competitions.

The 27-year-old had been left out of the matchday squad for United's last four matches, and has not played since the 2-1 Europa League win over Viktoria Plzen on December 12.

Ruben Amorim first left Rashford out for the Manchester derby and had said he wanted to see more from the forward in training.

The situation was then exacerbated a few days later when Rashford told journalist Henry Winter he was "ready for a new challenge" away from United.
