Marcus Rashford sets sights on becoming Manchester United's greatest-ever goalscorer
Rashford is still only 25, but he has to score a lot more to break Wayne Rooney's current record at Manchester United

Marcus Rashford is aiming to break Wayne Rooney's record at Manchester United and become the player to score the most goals in the club's history.
Rooney, who spent 13 seasons at Manchester United, bagged an incredible 253 goals during his time at Old Trafford. Rashford, meanwhile, is currently on 123, meaning he has to more than double his current tally to beat Rooney's record.
Still only 25, Rashford plans to keep playing until he's at least 36. If he stays with the Red Devils for the entirety of his career, he's certainly got time on his side. Rashford also revealed he has spoken to Rooney about the possibility of breaking his record, something that the current DC United manager - supposedly - is backing him to do.
"I’ve still got years left and hopefully I can play until I’m 36, 37," Rashford said on The Overlap.
"Hopefully I will [break Wayne Rooney’s all-time United goal record]. You never know what’s going to happen, but I’m all about scoring goals and trying to make assists. There’s a chance that it can happen.
"I’ve spoken to Wazza about it – he wants me to do it! He said it would be good for me to do it as I’ve grown up at the club. Hopefully I get the opportunity to try and make it happen."
That's not the only goal Rashford has with his boyhood side, though.

“[Lifting the Premier League trophy] has been my dream ever since I was a kid.
"I watched guys in your [Gary Neville’s] team winning so many times that it almost became natural for us to see you win it – we forgot about the hard work that you put into every game, and we expected to be lifting the trophy come the end of the season.
"It will be unbelievable for me to get my hands on that trophy with Manchester United – hopefully we manage to do that."
