Manchester United ace Marcus Rashford equals Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo achievements

Marcus Rashford has become the third Manchester United player since the start of last season to win the Premier League Player of the Month for a second time in the same campaign.

The academy graduate, who has been in devastating form since returning from the World Cup in Qatar, has been crowned as the Premier League's Player of the Month for January, following a run of three goals in four games. He scored in the victories over Bournemouth and arch-rivals Manchester City at Old Trafford, as well as opening the scoring in the 3-2 defeat to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

Rashford has claimed the award for the second time this season after winning it back in September, where he scored two goals and grabbed two assists in just two appearances in a shortened schedule. As well as scoring three times in the league in January, he also scored a further four goals and claimed two assists in cup competitions, meaning he enjoyed a stellar start to 2023.
