The England international’s appearance on the popular magazine is no surprise following the 23-year-old’s longing work to end child hunger in the UK.

Rashford took on the British government head on after they decided to end providing free school meals during mid-term breaks and the England striker campaigned to make the decision make a u-turn on their decision – which they did.

Since then the Manchester United striker has been continually providing updates of company’s and charity’s who have stepped up to provide free meals for those who need them most.

The issue is one that is close to Rashford’s heart having used the free school meals facility as a child and during an interview with his mother the United no.10 said“All the little struggles and the sacrifices that you made, it helps you appreciate everything like 10 times more, so I don’t see it as a weakness.”
