A former Ghanaian footballer, Michael Boye Marquaye, claims he is the biological father of Manchester United star, Marcus Rashford.
AllNews reports that the 65-year-old UK-based retired athlete made this sensational claim in a recent interview with Ghanaian radio station Starr FM, ghanasoccernet.com claims.
Rashford, 22, was born in Wythenshawe, Manchester, and is of Kittitian descent.
The exciting forward began playing football for Fletcher Moss Rangers at the age of five and joined the academy system at Manchester United at the age of seven.
It is unclear why the sexagenarian has remained silent all these years. However, he insists he is not making this revelation for monetary purposes.
