Marcus Rashford’s lucrative side business earns millions in profit
Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has been making waves not only for his ball playing skills, but also for his impressive business acumen.
His off-the-field business seems to be quite impressive, with him reportedly earning millions through it. According to Daily Mirror, he has built a property empire worth around £15 million through his companies – MUCS Enterprises, MUCS Properties, and MUCS Investments.
He is not alone in this venture as former Premier League players like Harry Kane and Micah Richards have also amassed substantial property portfolios. Kane has a portfolio valued at over £13 million, while Richards has also profited significantly from property investments.
Meanwhile, the 26-year-old had a mixed 2023/24 season, marked by fewer goals than usual, though he did secure another FA Cup winners’ medal by the end of the campaign.
Rashford was also absent from the England squad for Euro 2024 with Former manager Gareth Southgate noting that other players had more impactful seasons. This exclusion, however, has allowed Rashford to dedicate himself fully to Manchester United’s pre-season.
He has featured for at least 45 minutes in four of the five friendly matches played so far, though he missed the game against Rangers due to a minor injury. Fully recovered, Rashford is gearing up for the Community Shield against Manchester City this weekend.
