Rashford leads the way ahead of Istanbul clash

The homegrown forward hit a hat-trick against RB Leipzig after firing the winner at Paris Saint-Germain and is level with Liverpool new boy Diogo Jota, Juventus striker Alvaro Morata and the recently crowned Golden Boy-winner Erling Haaland, on four goals.

Ahead of the home tie with Istanbul Basaksehir, the England international will be seeking to add to his tally, which stands at nine overall in the Champions League - level with George Best in 15th in our overall standings and one adrift of Sir Bobby Charlton, who played when the tournament was called the European Cup.

The man leading the way for United strikes in Europe's premier competition is goal-machine Ruud van Nistelrooy, who hit 38 in 45 starts, with two further substitute appearances.
