Marcus Rashford Puts Rivalry Aside, Hangs Out With Van Dijk, De Bruyne Ahead of New Season

• Marcus Rashford momentarily forgot his on-pitch rivalries with Virgil Van Dijk and Kevin De Bruyne
• The Premier League stars enjoyed a Calvin Harris concert together on Van Dijk's birthday
• They are expected to return to pre-season training next week ahead of the next season

Marcus Rashford spent some time with Virgil Van Dijk and Kevin De Bruyne as their summer holidays approach the tail end.

Fans were left surprised by the Premier League trio hanging out despite coming from clubs considered bitter rivals in the Premier League.

Rashford's Manchester United and Van Dijk's Liverpool are always involved in a fierce Northwest derby which has often been propagated by the fact that they are two of the most successful clubs in England, as captured by Opta Analyst.

The geographical locations of Manchester United and Manchetser City also gave rise to the Manchester derby, especially after the latter started pulling weight in 2012. No club has been more successful than the Citizens since they changed ownership in 2008.
