The 25-year-old withdrew from the match in March due to injury and is now getting ready for the Euro 2024 qualifying matches against Malta and North Macedonia.
Although Rashford has had to withdraw from other camps over the years, controversy erupted when he chose to fly to New York while England was winning their Group C opening 2-1 in Italy.
The 51-cap striker's decision to fly to the United States at the time was backed by manager Gareth Southgate, and the Manchester United forward claims he was undeterred by criticism.
To be really honest with you, Rashford said, "I didn't see it. When I went home, I noticed it.
"I took a quick trip for four days and then returned to do rehab because I needed time to unwind and recover."
When asked if it bothered him that people questioned his dedication to representing his nation, Rashford said, "Honestly, it doesn't.
"I know that even though I'm fully dedicated to it, people will say what they're going to say. I'm not very bothered about it.
The previous international before the calendar was put on hold due to the coronavirus pandemic was an England victory over Kosovo in November 2019, which Rashford will play in his first qualification since.
He will undoubtedly play in Friday's Euro 2024 qualifier in Malta, but it's unclear whether the Manchester City five from England will be available.
After spending days celebrating their treble victory, Jack Grealish, Kyle Walker, Phil Foden, John Stones, and Kalvin Phillips arrived to St. George's Park on Tuesday.
Saturday's
As a relentless campaign finally comes to an end, Rashford is now entirely focused on global issues.
During an unusual campaign that featured the World Cup in Qatar sandwiched in the midst, he made 61 appearances for club and country.
This number might increase to 63 if he participates in the qualifier on Monday at Old Trafford against North Macedonia and Malta, which is just 23 days before United's first preseason game.
When questioned whether it was necessary to look at the calendar, Rashford responded, "I believe that's apparent.
It's absurd that from November until we were eliminated from the Europa League, we competed against teams that only played once a week at the club level.
