Zlatan Ibrahimovic believes Marcus Rashford can reach the very top of the game, but insists there is no hurry for the Manchester United forward.
Rashford has enjoyed a meteoric rise from relative unknown earlier this year, when he made a scoring debut in February's Europa League last-32 clash with FC Midtjylland, to netting a hat-trick on his maiden England U21 appearance last week - with a goalscoring full debut for the national team in between.
The striker has only been used off the bench by Jose Mourinho so far this season, but Ibrahimovic knows it is only a matter of time until he is starting.
"First of all, he's 18, he's still young," he said. "He has a lot of time.
"I think the way you have to approach a player like that, where everyone is talking about the talent and what he's able to do and what kind of potential he has, is to remember he still has a lot of time.
"It's not like he needs to take over the world today, the club knows that, the coach knows that and the team knows that.
"We know his quality and what he's able to do. What the world is seeing now, we already know because we see it every day.
"There is no need to rush to push him and put him in the heat zone and put a lot of pressure on him because that can have the opposite effect.
"Time by time, he will take over everything. It's about having patience."
