Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag had told Marcus Rashford that his decision to go clubbing after the Manchester derby defeat was totally unacceptable.
The English attacker spent a night at the China White Nightclub on October 29, 2023, to celebrate his 26th birthday.
The manager said, “I spoke with him about it. It’s unacceptable. He apologized, and that is it. For us, it’s an internal matter.”
“He’s very motivated to put things right. He’s totally with us.”
“He has made a mistake, but that doesn’t mean he’s not fitting in. I see him every day in training; I know what he’s doing.”
The talented striker is unlikely to be fined by the club due to his participation in the 3-0 defeat at Old Trafford against Newcastle in the Carabao Cup on November 1, 2023.
He is also available for selection for a must-win game against Fulham in the Premier League on November 4, 2023.
This is not the first time Marcus Rashford had issues with the Dutch manager.
Last season, on December 31, 2022, the Manchester United winger was put on the bench against Wolves for coming late to a meeting. He came on to score the only goal of the match.
Currently, the winger who scored more than 30 goals for Manchester United last season is struggling in front of goal with one goal in 10 Premier League matches.
The club had been struggling to win matches due to the inconsistency of the attacker.

The team had also been very vulnerable at the back, with little protection from the Manchester United defense to stop Andre Onana from conceding goals.
However, one of his best defenders, Aaron Wan Bissaka, made a return and played in the second-half defeat against Newcastle.
Raphael Varane had also returned to the squad after missing the game against Newcastle due to illness.
