Marcus Rashford is an English forward who joined Manchester United's academy at the age of seven. He scored twice on his first-team debut in 2016 and has won the FA Cup, the League Cup and the Europa League with the club. He spent 2025 and 2026 on loan at Aston Villa and Barcelona, winning La Liga with Barcelona.
The Sunday Times valued his wealth at £22 million in May 2022, about $29 million at the October 28, 2026 exchange rate. He was 17th on its list of young British-based sports stars.
How he made his money
Rashford's money comes mostly from his Manchester United wages and sponsorship deals. Off the pitch he is also known for his 2020 campaign for free school meals for children in England.
The reports we checked on the 2022 list did not break down his fortune, so this page gives only the headline figure.

About this estimate
The Sunday Times publishes its Rich List every spring, and alongside it a ranking of the wealthiest young people in British sport. The 2022 edition, published in May 2022, valued Rashford's wealth at the figure shown on this page. The paper bases its numbers on identifiable wealth such as earnings after tax, property and company stakes, not on salary alone.
This is the most recent Sunday Times figure for Rashford that we could find. The estimate has not been updated since 2022, so his wealth today is likely different. We show the figure as published, in pounds, with a rough dollar conversion at the October 28, 2026 exchange rate. Weekly wages and transfer fees mentioned on this page are earnings or club spending, not wealth.
