Ole Gunnar Solskjaer Says Marcus Rashford Can Improve Like Cristiano Ronaldo

Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is hoping Marcus Rashford can improve his game like former Red Devils forward Cristiano Ronaldo to become more of a goal threat in the box.

The England international converted a late penalty in United's 3-1 win over Paris Saint-Germain in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday to secure United's progression into the quarter-finals, but Solskjaer feels there's still room for him to improve.

Per Samuel Luckhurst of the Manchester Evening News, he thinks Rashford evolving game like former United star Cristiano Ronaldo will help him add more goals to his game:

"I keep battering him with it that he should also score as many goals as [Romelu Lukaku] after training sessions have finished, you should always get them simple tap-ins, like Rom scored in last few games.
