With AJ up to his shins in sand, Rashford hurled heavy medicine balls at the IBF and WBA king while he did sideward shuttle runs.

The Man United starlet paid a visit to Josh while he is training for his heavyweight clash on October 28.

The pair posed on the ringside with their fists raised as Joshua held his arm around teenager Rashford.

The 27-year-old is actually a Watford fan - a team United are yet to face this season.

But Joshua will be right behind Rashford when he heads to the World Cup with England, with high hopes on his young shoulders.

It will be the biggest game of United's season so far and Jose Mourinho's side are without Paul Pogba and Marouane Fellaini in midfield, with the pair currently recovering from injury.

But the Red Devils are undefeated in the Premier League this season and are level on points with Manchester City at the top of the table.

He has been rotated with Anthony Martial for most of the season as Mourinho's attack looks to have finally found some scoring form.  

The summer transfer window was one the craziest we have ever seen.
