Mourinho believes Rashford will improve again over the next 12 months
According to the Daily Mail, Mourinho believes Rashford will improve again over the next 12 months, having acknowledged matching his breakthrough season has been a tough ask. Zlatan Ibrahimovic has largely featured ahead of him, forcing Rashford to feature out left, but a big future is in the offing up front. Although Mourinho has faith in the youngster’s potential, the Manchester United boss is going ahead with his bold summer transfer plans. The Portuguese is apparently determined to lure a new striker to Manchester, having drawn up a list of targets.
