"Yeah, you can see he's having maybe the best form of his life," Van Persie told Manunited.com.
"The way he plays, he looks very fit. He looks very focused.
"He looks to have fun. He's on a mission now. Everyone knew from an early age because he broke through from a very early age.
"Everyone knew how good of a player he was - and still is of course - but now you see that everything clicks, and that is partly down to him, but as well a coach, and, as well, your team-mates.
Van Persie then went on to reveal one of the key reasons for Rashford's purple patch and why he believes it will only get better.
The Dutch striker explained that Rashford's unique connection with Bruno Fernandes is part of why he has been on fire and that he will only grow from strength to strength.
"If you look at the connection he has with Fernandes, for example, that is something unique."
"You only have that connection with a few players throughout your career. And he has that now. He is like going from strength to strength."
Rashford is currently on break, as he did not join up with the England squad for their Euro 2024 qualifiers. You can find the full details here.
