“That is more important than any game of football he could play.”

The player’s activities have been a constant pride for his manager. As someone who has gone through the free meal voucher program, Rashford is better placed than many to know the importance of the initiative. (h/t BBC)
He was keen for others to have the opportunity he did. In spite of initially failing, he eventually helped convince Prime Minister Boris Johnson to reverse his decision. (h/t BBC)
“It has been fantastic to follow Marcus throughout the lockdown period.”
Despite being just 22, Rashford is one of the most recognizable players in Red. He has made use of that influence to help society as he can, cementing his position as a hero.
His efforts have earned him much goodwill from fans all over the country. Cutting across club lines, football tribalism was put to the side as the striker’s efforts were recognized.
Solskjaer has backed Rashford to captain United and even England one day. Given the way he leads from the front, we will not be surprised when it comes to pass. (h/t BBC)
