  ​Nottingham Forest face a pivotal Europa League clash in Denmark tonight, trailing 1-0 on aggregate against FC Midtjylland.

  Defender Ola Aina emphasized the need for a clean sheet to keep their quarter-final hopes alive.

  He stated: “We will keep it tight at the back, and hopefully we can bang in some goals.”

• Marcus Rashford’s chances of Man Utd return summed up by Michael Carrick warning

  Manchester United interim manager Michael Carrick has praised the early potential of Marcus Rashford, whose strong form at Barcelona has sparked discussions about a possible Old Trafford return.

  Manchester United interim boss Michael Carrick has reflected on his early mentorship of Marcus Rashford, highlighting the immediate impact the forward made as a teenager.

  Recalling Rashford’s explosive debut, Carrick noted his early advice to the star: “Watch yourself now. Enjoy it but you’re going to get a lot of media attention; everyone’s going to know you. You’ve gone from no one knowing you.”

  Currently on loan at Barcelona, Rashford has rediscovered his form, contributing to 23 goals in 34 appearances.

  While a permanent exit seems likely, Carrick’s continued admiration and former teammate Juan Mata’s belief in Rashford’s deep-rooted connection to United fuel speculation regarding a possible return.

  Mata stated: “He was a man who gave everything for the club he supported since he was a kid.”
