\Rashford 'went on 12-hour tequila bender in Belfast' as he spotted in nightclub

Marcus Rashford reportedly went on a 12-hour bender in Belfast before calling in sick to Manchester United training last week.

The 26-year-old missed training on Friday after spending two days in Northern Ireland and was left out of the squad for United's 4-2 FA Cup win against Newport County on Sunday. Mail Sport revealed on Monday night that Rashford's United team-mates are angry with him for the breach of discipline.

Now, fresh details of his time in Belfast have emerged, with waitress Sarah Adair, 30, telling The Sun Rashford was out drinking 'all day' and she needed to put him to bed, after he arrived in the city and visited Larne FC, who his friend Ro-Shaun Williams had just signed for.

Describing the end of the night after leaving a nightclub with Rashford shortly after 2am and arriving back at his hotel at 3am, Adair said: 'He was so drunk at this point that he picked up his own bag and dropped it and all this cash fell out. It was all £20 notes and big wads of it. I reckon there was between £8,000 and £10,000 cash.

'Then he falls back into the wall and I have to kind of scoop him up and on to the bed. He was fully dressed and I reckon he just passed out like that. He didn’t even get under the covers.'

Adair earlier explained how Rashford had invited her to join him and his friends on their night out, and told her that he had also been out drinking the previous evening.

After she agreed to join him, Rashford asked Adair whether she knew any nightclubs that would remain open beyond 3am if he paid them enough money, which indicated to her that he wasn't busy the next day.

'That made it clear to me that he had already made his mind up that he wasn’t going to training on Friday. He had no plans to go home that night,' she
