Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford has vowed to continue the struggle so that no child in Britain remains hungry, having contributed to the collection of 20 million pounds ($ 25 million) to charities during the quarantine period due to the emerging Corona virus.
The 22-year-old English international cooperated with the "Versher" association, which is concerned with distributing meals to about 11,000 charities and community groups.
"I have great news," Rashford said on his Twitter account. We have set a goal that, by the end of June, we will be able to secure three million meals for people deprived across the UK. ”
He added, "Today, we collected the specified amount to secure these meals. Thank you all for your support. ”
Rashford, who is ranked fifth most expensive player in Europe according to a study published by the International Center for Sports Studies (CISS) this week, said he celebrates this success and does not intend to stop the fight.
"Trust me when I say that I will continue to struggle so that no child in the UK worries about his next meal," he said. This is England in 2020, and families need help. ”
