According to the journalist Dean Jones, the attacking player Marcus Rahsford for Manchester United could end up being just as vital as Kylian Mbappe is for Paris Saint-Germain.

This news follows on the heels of Rashford’s impressive performance for England at the World Cup, when he helped the team advance to the quarterfinals of the tournament.

Jones said in an interview with GIVEMESPORT that Rashford has the potential to be just as valuable to United as Mbappe is to PSG.

What is the most recent piece of information concerning Marcus Rashford?

Rashford was in the lead for the Golden Boot competition for this year’s World Cup before to his brace against Wales in England’s final group game. This game took place during the 2022 World Cup.

Rashford scored those two goals in Qatar, but they turned out to be the last two goals he scored at the World Cup. England was eliminated from the competition by the hands of the defending champions, France.

In spite of the setback, Rashford will go back to his club filled with plenty of confidence as Erik ten Hag designs the next move for the attacker.

During an interview with the website of United, ten Hag made the following statement: “There is almost no greater player in the world.”

The manager of United stated that “Mbappe in this moment” is the only player capable of delivering what Rashford can offer on the last line of a defence, and that Rashford is the only player who can say that.

Rashford is a product of the United academy, but there have been rumours that he would try to leave United when his current contract expires in the summer. One of the clubs that has been rᴜmσᴜred to be interested in Rashford is Paris Saint-Germain.

However, following on from his exploits in Qatar, it is believed that Rashford’s future at Old Trafford might extend beyond this current campaign, with the Daily Star reporting that he could be offered £400,000 per week if he stays. This belief is based on the fact that Rashford’s future at Old Trafford might extend beyond this season.

What kind of things does Jones have to say about Rashford?

He stated that “One thing that isn’t in doubt is that if Erik ten Hag can unleash him properly, he may be every bit as essential to United as Mbappe is to PSG.” This is a statement that cannot be disputed.

A similar profile, Jones did continue by admitting that the parallels to Rashford might be a little unfair.

He said, “I don’t really appreciate the parallels to Mbappe,” which are often made about him.

“In my opinion, that puts further pressure on Rashford, which is the last thing he needs right now.”

How can United get the most out of their forward, Marcus Rashford?

The manner in which Rahsford performed in Qatar might provide United manager ten Hag with the ideal model for how to coax the forward who was born in Manchester to perform to his full potential.

Because he was used on the wings, Marcus Rashford had the opportunity to attack on the flanks, and as a result, all three of the goals he scored during the World Cup were from wide areas.

According to FBref, Rahsford is in the top 25% for touches inside the opponent penalty area per 90 minutes for wingers over the course of the previous year. This statistic demonstrates the significant тҺreaт that he poses in attacking areas.

The search for a centre forward is going to continue into the New Year, so Rashford’s ability to play anywhere along the forward line could end up being quite helpful to United as they try to earn a spot in the Champions League.
