Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has heaped praise on his young star Marcus Rashford.

The Red Devils superstar has made headlines for his activism in the COVID-19 lockdown.

Not only has Rashford raised millions for charity, but he also lobbied the government to continue a free school meals program for disadvantaged children through the summer holidays.

"He's already been captain of the club, and at such a young age, and he's proving all the time his human qualities, which is a main attribute for a Man United player," said Solskjaer during a news conference.

"We're really proud of him and his family must be so proud of what he has achieved.

"He is a future leader, a future captain maybe of England, Manchester United, who knows?"
