Marcus Rashford says he doesn’t look beyond Manchester United and has made clear he wants to stay where he is “for the long-term”.
The Red Devils star made the vow shortly after winning the Sports Journalists’ Association’s (SJA) Sport for Social Change awards, following his incredible efforts this year in the fight against child food poverty. In October, the 23-year-old became an MBE after being named on the Queen’s Birthday Honours list.
Rashford has been lauded for his campaign which saw the government allow 1.3million children to claim free school meal vouchers during the COVID-19 pandemic. He was crowned the winner of the Sports Journalists’ Association’s (SJA) Sport for Social Change awards and gratefully received the award during today’s ceremony hosted by Jim Rosenthal.
During the interview, Rosenthal asked Rashford whether he could ever see himself playing for any team other than Manchester United. His response was emphatic.
“For me I never look beyond Manchester United. As a kid, I only had Manchester United in my mind and it wouldn’t sit right with me pulling on another shirt.
“I just want to do the best I can for the club whilst I’m here, so long-term hopefully I’m here for the long-term.”
