David Beckham is excited by Manchester United young gun Marcus Rashford.

The former Red Devils star was commenting on the talented youth coming through at Old Trafford when he spoke glowingly of the 18-year-old who has scored seven goals in 16 appearances this season.

"Rashford I think is a player. For me it's exciting to see him," he told Copa90's Poet and Vuj at the re-opening of the adidas store on Oxford Street, London.

"He's young, he comes in and plays with confidence. He plays with the kind of presence of a Man United player as well, at such a young age.

"It's great to actually see young players come in like that."
