Marcus Rashford - England

England v Slovenia - FIFA 2018 World Cup Qualifier

Marcus Rashford has been considered as the hottest young English talent since Wayne Rooney. Rashford's talent was noticed when he was seven years of age and he signed for Manchester United. Since then he has grown into becoming one of the most clinical strikers in England.

Rashford broke into the Red Devils first team in the 2015/16 season where he scored in his Europa League and Premier League debut. Rashford steadily became one of the most crucial cogs in Van Gaal's FA Cup-winning squad.

Since then, Rashford has played an important role in winning 4 trophies in 3 years in what one may call a ‘post- Ferguson’ era. He was also asked to represent the Three Lions at the age of 19 and became the youngest Englishman to score in his international debut.

Rashford has become England's brightest star for the future and has consistently proved his doubters wrong. His confidence, decisiveness, and childlike looks have garnered him a reputation of a baby-faced assassin for club and country level games.
