Bryan Robson has warned Marcus Rashford that his mindset must shift if he wants to secure a future at Manchester United.
The 27-year-old is currently thriving during a season-long stint with Barcelona after losing his place under Ruben Amorim. At the Catalan club, Rashford has netted five times and provided seven assists in 13 appearances across all competitions so far.
Whilst the striker is flourishing under Hansi Flick's guidance, this revival could spell trouble when the campaign concludes.
Although Barcelona possess a £28million buy option for the England star when his temporary deal expires next summer, they may choose not to activate it.
This is because they already boast exceptional talent on both wings in Raphinha and Lamine Yamal, creating fierce competition for spots.

Should Rashford make his way back to Old Trafford, there's no certainty he would earn a place in Amorim's first team, despite his enhanced displays in Spain.
Nevertheless, United icon Robson reckons a change in mentality could significantly help him reclaim his position at his childhood club.
Speaking to Grosvenor Casinos, Robson commented: "The thing is for me, Marcus lost his focus. Commentators annoy me a wee bit where they say that Marcus is enjoying his football and they were saying that at Villa.

"Well, when you look at it, he didn't do that well at Villa because he didn't score that many goals," reports the Manchester Evening News.
"Marcus is a great talent and everything, but I do think his attitude's got to change if he does come back to United. Barcelona is different because we always know that Barcelona and Real Madrid are going to be dominant in their league.

"So for a player like Marcus playing with the top players like Barcelona have, he will improve and he will start enjoying his football a little bit better if he were to come back to United.
"I can't believe that people say that he's enjoying the two clubs that he left us for and that you can't enjoy your football at Man United. That seems crazy to me."
