Southampton winger Nathan Redmond has told talkSPORT that Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford’s finishing is incredible.
Rashford is one of the best young strikers in the Premier League and has been in good form so far this season.
The 18-year-old has scored one goal and created one chance in one league appearance for United so far this campaign.
The teenager also scored a hat-trick for the England Under-21 side against their Norwegian counterparts in a 6-1 win in Colchester on Tuesday.
