The England international has carried on his form from the World Cup where he scored three times to leading Manchester United to their first title in six years when they defeated Newcastle 2-0 in the Carabao final at Wembley and he finished the competition with 6goals.
Rashford is currently the leading scorer in the Europa League with five goals and his latest goal came on Thursday when he opened scoring as Man United went on to hammer Real Betis 4-1 in the first leg of the round of 16 encounter at Old Trafford.
However, many would argue for Arsenal midfielder, Bukayo Saka who has been exceptional this season and one of the reasons why the Gunners are favourites to win the premier league.
