Blackburn defender Brown urges Rashford to grab his Man Utd chance

Blackburn Rovers defender Wes Brown has urged Marcus Rashford to grab his chance at Manchester United.

Rashford is set to get his first start in three games in the FA Cup fifth round at Ewood Park this weekend.

Former United defender Brown said: “It's hard. I remember when I got through, it's not as bad as this, but you know you have got a couple of games to show what you can do otherwise you get dropped back again.

“It's not the end and he has obviously done fantastic. At the moment he has not played that much, he has come on as a sub.

“He is young and I am sure Mourinho has got him in his plans for the future."
