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.
Bruno Miguel Borges Fernandes (born 8 September 1994) is a Portuguese footballer who plays for Primeira Liga club Sporting CP and the Portugal national team as a midfielder. Fernandes started his career at Serie B side Novara Calcio and soon featured for Udinese and Sampdoria in Serie A.
In 2017, he signed with Sporting CP where he established himself as one of the best players in the Primeira Liga. He was named the LPFP Primeira Liga Player of the Year in both 2017–18 and 2018–19. In the latter season, he also helped Sporting win the Taça de Portugal. A senior international since 2017, Fernandes represented Portugal at the 2016 Summer Olympics and 2018 FIFA World Cup.
While not many Manchester United fans prefer international football over club football, plenty would agree that the March international break has come at a good time for Erik ten Hag's side given their heavy load of late.
Should United reach the finals of both the Europa League and FA Cup, they will play 19 more times this term - 12 in the Premier League, five in Europe and twice in the FA Cup.
The Reds have already played 46 matches this season, with the likes of Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes playing in the majority of them.
Having already won the Carabao Cup this season, United - who are just a few wins away from guaranteeing a top-four finish - will be desperate to bring more silverware back to Old Trafford in Ten Hag's first campaign in charge.
