Rashford's form this season has been pathetic and getting into another relationship could help rejuvenate the England international's career

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is reportedly dating former Love Island contestant Grace Rosa Jackson.

The 25-year-old, model and influencer, featured on season 11 of the ITV2 dating show and she very briefly 'coupled up' with Joey Essex. This came after she and former TOWIE star Essex had enjoyed a holiday romance in 2023.

However, according to The Sun, Jackson has moved on and has been on multiple dates with Rashford, 27, around the Cheshire area over the past few months.

Rashford had previously been in a long-term relationship with childhood sweetheart Lucia Loi before they split over the summer of 2023. Like Rashford, his new love interest has a very busy lifestyle that involves plenty of travel.

Before heading onto Love Island she said: "I like to go out and go abroad a lot. They can't keep up with my lifestyle! 'It's the life that I want, and it helps with my business. To sit in and be single, I can't understand why I would do that in my peak and my mid-20s."

Rashford has only scored two goals in 12 league games so far this season, after netting seven in 33 during the previous campaign. His best attacking return to date came in the 2022-23 season when he bagged 17 times in 35 Premier League games as part of a 30-goal haul in all competitions.

Rashford has won 60 senior international caps for England but he has only represented his country once this year and he was not part of Gareth Southgate's Euro 2024 squad last summer.
