Former Ghanaian Footballer In The UK Claims To Be Marcus Rashford’s Biological Father

• Manchester United footballer Marcus Rashford could be a Ghanaian
• This is because an ex-Ghanaian footballer who lives in the UK claims he is Rashfords father
• Michael Boye Marquaye said he does not want any money from Rashford but only needs him to know his actual roots

A Ghanaian man living in the United Kingdom, Michael Boye Marquaye, said he is the biological father of Manchester United footballer Marcus Rashford.

This is not the first time Michael Boye Marquaye has alleged that he is the birth father of the Manchester United star.

In a video that is widely circulating on social media, Michael, who said he is a former footballer, said he is now coming public with his claims due to the respect he has for Rashford and his mother, Melanie.

“I am telling you I am your father. This thing has been going on for too long but I keep quiet. You can say what you want to say about Melanie this, Melanie that. I respect Melanie very much and I respect her husband but I have to tell you the truth. Because if I don’t tell you the truth, your children and great grandchildren will be lost.”

Some have accused Michael of doing this because Rashford has become popular and needs the footballer's money. However, the ex-footballer said he is not doing it for financial gain but because he believes Rashford is responsible for looking for him.

“I am doing this not because of money, it is you I want. I’m getting very angry…You can come to me at any time you want my hands are open.”

Michael’s comments come after Rashford’s mother, Melanie, narrated how she struggled to care for her four children as a single parent in an interview.

Melanie said she used to starve so her children could eat. She is a proud parent whose son has provided her with a home. She said she sometimes thinks of where they have come from and where they are now.
