Rashford not only missed out on this summer’s Euro 2024 but also Lee Carsley’s two England squads for Nations League clashes.
But he could return to the international fold in the near future, with Tuchel a big fan of the 26-year-old forward.
Speaking before Paris Saint-Germain’s Champions League tie against Man United, the former Chelsea boss praised the player’s character and skill-set.
“We value him a lot more when he’s playing in England and not in Parc des Princes honestly because it can get a little bit annoying with him,” he joked.
“The guy is a very young adult who takes his responsibility off and on the pitch which is honestly very impressive.
“I’ve met him three times as an opponent and I meet a calm guy, I meet a humble guy which is amazing because I like this mixture a lot.”
Tuchel added: “On a sporting side, it is clear he is a big threat with his speed and his ability to score with his precision in finishing and his determination and his quality.
“He is so precise with his finishing both outside and inside the box, he is super rapid on counterattacks and is strong in the air from headers.”
