Marcus Rashford has caused a stir in England after reportedly being spotted partying just hours after Manchester United's derby defeat to Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

According to The Telegraph, the forward was seen enjoying the nightlife in Manchester "just hours before he was due to report for training on Monday morning".
This comes after the Red Devils suffered a humiliating 3-0 defeat to last season's treble winners at Old Trafford, a game in which Rashford was taken off before full-time.
The report claims Rashford, who turned 26 on Tuesday, was attending his own birthday bash that had been organised by friends well before United's loss to their crosstown rivals.
It is said the 20-time English champions were unaware of the player's plan to head out, but it is further claimed that players are not required to let the club know in advance.
Rashford and United have reportedly both declined to comment on the matter, although there is a concern that head coach Erik ten Hag might not take to the news very well given his disciplinary standards.
The player's night out comes during a difficult time for both himself and his team.
United have lost five of their opening 10 league matches so far this season, and are facing an uphill task in qualifying for the first knockout round of the UEFA Champions League.
