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.
Manchester United loanee Marcus Rashford could see his £1.5m per year Nike sponsorship deal slashed after the forward agreed to join Aston Villa on loan.
Rashford was left as an outcast in the United squad after Ruben Amorim dropped the winger for the Manchester derby. A few days later, the England international declared his desire to take on a new challenge and from then onwards, he did not feature another minute for the Reds.
