MARCUS RASHFORD says he is looking forward to a fresh start under Erik Ten Hag as he bids to get his football career back on track.
The Manchester United forward lost his way last season in the general malaise at Old Trafford.
But Rashford is convinced he can recapture the form that made him a Red Devils favourite under the new boss.
Rashford said: “We can do a lot together. For me it is a fresh start, something I am looking forward to.
“I am in a good place right now. I am looking forward to getting more games under my belt and getting ready for the season.”
Rashford has had a rare summer without any form of international football having fallen out of Gareth Southgate’s squad.
