Manchester United frontman Marcus Rashford reveals his excitement ahead of the draw for the group stages of next year's World Cup in Russia.

England frontman Marcus Rashford has revealed his excitement ahead of the looming draw for the group stages of next year's 2018 World Cup in Russia.

The Manchester United forward is due to compete in his second major tournament for the Three Lions and has admitted that he will be watching the draw live, as Gareth Southgate's charges await their fate on Friday.

"Yeah, 100% I'll be watching it," Rashford told PA.

"The Premier League season is difficult but we have to make sure that each individual is playing at our best to get in the team first for all.

"You've got to be playing well for your club, and then you've got to come together and try and peak for the tournament, which is probably the most difficult thing because after a long season it's another level of just your body physically. Sometimes it's hard for it to cope."

Rashford has netted twice for England in 15 appearances, having been brought into the senior setup under Southgate in 2016.
