Ole Gunnar Solskjaer feels Marcus Rashford is at the same level as Kylian Mbappe.
Both the players will come face to face when Manchester United host Paris Saint Germain in an exciting Champions League round of 16 clash. The young forward was rested in United’s 3-0 win over Fulham in the Premier League and is now likely to lead the line on Tuesday.
The 21 year has led the revival mission since Solskjaer’s induction and has been the manager’s blue eyed boy in this exceptional campaign so far. The English international has already made a mark with his exemplary goal scoring skills and the onus will be on him to lead the charge in United’s European campaign.
Solskjaer said, “Marcus is going to be a top-quality player. I love working with him. I am sure PSG will look at Marcus the way we look at Mbappe – he’s one of the main threats.
“Mbappe had a fantastic rise to stardom and he’s got a fantastic smile about him. A great enthusiasm. And there will understandably be comparisons.
“I have seen Mbappe live once and Marcus every single day. Strikers don’t really dominate football but the pair of them will have a massive impression on football for the next 10 years. They will really light it up.”
