Manchester United manager, Erik ten Hag, has challenged Marcus Rashford to “raise the bar” despite the forward scoring 30 goals last season.
Rashford was the standout performer for the Red Devils as they secured a top-four finish in the Premier League and brought a six-year wait for major silverware to a close with Carabao Cup glory.
He has since committed to a new contract at Old Trafford, but Ten Hag is looking for even more from the 25-year-old in 2023-24.
Ten Hag told reporters when asked what he is looking for from Rashford in the upcoming campaign: “For Rashy we expect him to raise the bar. He had a good season last year but that doesn’t give guarantees for another great season. Everything has to be right, his base, his foundation, attitude, lifestyle etc.
“But also to work on his game, work on the way of play for himself and [within] the team.
“We are looking for goals and Rashy, in this moment, proved he has a very good goalscoring record. But for himself he wants to make the next step and score more goals than last season.”
