Marcus Rashford (born 31 October 1997) is an English professional footballer who plays as a forward for Premier League club Manchester United and the England national team.
A Manchester United player from the age of seven, he scored two goals on both his first-team debut against Midtjylland in the UEFA Europa League in February 2016 and his Premier League debut against Arsenal three days later.
He also scored in his first Manchester derby match, his first EFL Cup match and his first UEFA Champions League match. With United, Rashford has so far won the FA Cup, EFL Cup, FA Community Shield and UEFA Europa League.
Erik ten Hag could deploy Marcus Rashford as a secondary striker alongside Cristiano Ronaldo at Manchester United next season - a request that the Portuguese icon made himself last year.Despite United's woes, Ronaldo enjoyed a fruitful season back at Old Trafford after he completed a romantic return to the club that made him a superstar.
The 37-year-old notched 24 goals and three assists in 39 games, often playing up front alone.It's now emerged that Ronaldo was keen to play alongside Rashford up front last season.
