Manchester United full-back Tyrell Malacia was taken to the hospital after Marcus Rashford‘s Range Rover was involved in a car collision, this month. Rashford, however, remained unhurt as he was in a car behind the Range Rover at the time.

The incident took place in Wilmslow, Cheshire, on July 16 this month, when a black Mercedes C220 AMG Sport collided with Marcus Ransford‘s Range Rover Sport. Reports of the incident emerged much later. The 26-year-old remained unhurt, as he was in a separate car at the time of the crash. However, fellow Red Devils’ star Tyrell Malacia was a passenger in the SUV, and both he and the driver were advised to seek medical attention after the accident.

Cheshire Police confirmed their response to the collision involving the two players. Meanwhile, the Mercedes driver, a 55-year-old woman, was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving and was later taken to Macclesfield Hospital for examination. Despite the concerning situation, doctors quickly cleared both the Dutch full-back and the driver of any serious injuries. Both the players returned to training, the day after.

Interestingly, the accident happened just two days before Rashford received a six-month driving ban for speeding. Moreover, the player was involved in a car crash last year, marking his second accident within a year.

Manchester United refuse massive £168 million Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes swap deal

The Red Devils have reportedly declined Paris Saint-Germain’s approaches for Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes, despite a massive £168 million swap deal on the table. Manager Erik ten Hag has refused to sell the two players, even though it could potentially reduce the wage bill.

United are planning a complete squad overhaul after their worst-ever Premier League finish last season. Despite their recent decline in contributions, Ten Hag is unwilling to let the duo go, as their departure would leave the team lacking creativity. The Parisian club has reportedly offered to exchange midfielder Manuel Ugarte, a player United are interested in.

Additionally, the Red Devils have been very active in the transfer window this summer, making two notable signings, Leny Yoro from Lille and Joshua Zirkzee from Bologna.
