Rashford reacts to Solskjaer's Ronaldo comparison

The England forward is keeping his feet on the ground despite his head coach suggesting he could scale the heights of the Portuguese star

Marcus Rashford has responded to comments made by Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer comparing him to Juventus superstar Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Norwegian suggested that comparisons between the two players were natural and insisted that the Englishman has the potential to be a “top, top player”.

Rashford has 13 goals and four assists in 21 appearances across all competitions so far this season but is aware that he has a long way to go before he matches the five-time Ballon d’Or winner’s achievements.
