Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has claimed that he is an option for Jose Mourinho in the number 10 position as Wayne Rooney's spot in the team continues to come under question.
Rooney has struggled to perform for the Red Devils in the early weeks of the new season and it has been reported that Mourinho will drop his captain for this weekend's Premier League clash with Leicester City.
Rashford capped his first league start of the season with a goal in Saturday's 3-1 defeat to Watford, where the 18-year-old operated in a wide position.
However, the teenager has revealed that he used to play in the number 10 role for Man United's Under-16 team and would feel confident in that position for the senior side.
"I don't regret playing in that position because it means now I can still play there if I need to – number 10, on both wings and up front as well. It means I have more in my armoury when it comes to the matches," Rashford told United Review.
"I used to look up to players who would dribble at people, creating chances, scoring too. But the type of the player I want to be now is different to the type of player I wanted to be then."
Man United will attempt to bounce back from three straight defeats when they travel to Northampton Town in the third round of the League Cup on Wednesday night.
