Former EPL striker names transfer value of United star

Former English Premier League striker Shola Ameobi is of the opinion that Manchester United striker will be valued at nothing less than £200 million in a short while.

He made this claim after The England international scored the goal that ensured the Red Devil’s victory over Shola Ameobi’s former side Newcastle on Wednesday to make it his seventh goal of the season.

Shola Ameobi could not hide his feeling towards Marcus Rashford’s performance as he hailed him to be of the best in the league because of his techniques which makes it difficult for goalkeepers to save.

• Is this a confirmation that Keylor Navas is close to joining Arsenal?

The former Newcastle striker therefore claimed that United now have a manager who was once a striker and he expects to see a better Rashford rather than having a manager who is of a defensive mindset.

Also, Rashford earned the praise of the new interim boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who stated that Marcus Rashford is always involved in all of the happenings on the pitch including the headings and the tackles which makes him the complete player.

However, Marcus Rashford was not appreciated by former manager Jose Mourinho who claimed the player is being childish and has a lot to work upon before becoming a big player.
