Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford says they'll be ready for former teammate Zlatan Ibrahimovic when facing AC Milan tonight in the Europa League.

The question will be can Rashford overshadow a giant presence like Zlatan on his home turf?

"It's nice to see him again and, for us, hopefully he manages to play as it's going to be a great game and big players make games even better," said Rashford of the veteran striker.

"He helped me a lot, seeing the way he prepares to get himself ready mentally for each game. He's a different type of animal, mentally and physically as well. He brought that fighting experience to our squad and has done the same at Milan, to be fair."

United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer also said of the Swede: "Yes and he's had a tremendous career, winning trophies everywhere he's been. He's been an influence and had an impact everywhere he's been and a role model for so many.

"Playing at his age, at the level he is at, is also being a role model and being Zlatan. He's never, ever stopped surprising or impressing people. Even just being back in the Swedish national team for the Euros just shows the hunger he has for football."
