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 have one big benefactor of Amad's injury
manchestereveningnews.co.ukManchester United fans' hopes of seeing Amad in action at Old Trafford this weekend have been scuppered by a knee injury. The Ivorian winger won't play any further part in pre-season and will miss 'the start' of the Premier League campaign.
United have not given an exact timeframe for his return. That could end any possibility of Amad heading out on loan during this transfer window.
Erik ten Hag wanted to cast a judgement on the youngster in the warm-up matches but that opportunity has been curtailed. Having performed so well for Sunderland last year, it was unclear whether the 21-year-old would immediately graduate to the first team or seek another development loan this year.
