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.
So much can change in 12 months and Marcus Rashford is learning that the hard way - not for the first time either. Eight years into his senior career at Manchester United and he has had the hero-to-zero arch more than most manage in a lifetime.
In April/May 2023 he was on his way to scoring 30 times for United in all competitions, leading Erik ten Hag to a hugely respectable and largely successful first term in charge.
