Major European sides like Italian Serie A giants Juventus as well as the Spanish La Liga duo of Barcelona and Real Madrid have all been linked with Marcus Rashford in the past.
Marcus Rashford is the top choice striker at Manchester United since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer took charge of the team.
He scored 13 goals in all competitions last season.
