Rashford describes the awesome moment Van Gaal told him he was going to Euro 2016

The Manchester United striker has revealed how his former manager broke the news he would be going to France after whispers at the training ground

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford has revealed the immense buzz around his call-up to the England squad for Euro 2016 and how Louis van Gaal broke the news to him.

The 19-year-old striker, who burst onto scene in the 2015-16 campaign after only making his first-team debut in February, did enough to work his way into then-manager Roy Hodgson's plans for the tournament in France.

And Rashford has lifted the lid on how he found out about the news in May 2016, with former United boss Van Gaal having told him immediately after a training session.
