For three weeks, Manchester United's number 10 has been talked about a lot in the media for various reasons.
This week, the petition he tabled on October 15 in the British Parliament to fight child poverty reached one million signatures.
An important symbol as last week MPs voted with Parliament's mandatory review of petitions collecting more than 100,000 signatures.

But free-meals, the right to free meals for the poorest households (either in the canteen or in the form of vouchers), can only benefit children until their second year of primary school. while the English striker wants to lengthen this age group.
"I call on the government to extend vouchers for free meals to all parents of children up to 16 years of age who are beneficiaries of social minima, to continue to provide these vouchers during school holidays and to increase the value of vouchers. health purchase for pregnant women of at least 4.25 pounds per week, “claims the English striker on his various social networks he has 3.8 million subscribers on Twitter and 9.1 million on Instagram.
The first fight he won - for the distribution of free meals during the summer and October school holidays - was not enough for him, and he won with an overwhelming majority in public opinion for this quest.
Many restaurants, shops, supermarkets across the country took turns announcing that they would provide free meals for England's most disadvantaged children.
And after the meeting on Wednesday evening, Marcus Rashford gave a nod to his fight on his Instagram account by posting a #EndChildFoodPoverty with a small message of thanks, while he was decorated with the title of member of the Order of the British Empire.
And to believe the Daily Telegraph, Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, who did not want to hear of Marcus Rashford's request, would start to retrace his steps, and would study the launch of a national program of activities for children during the Christmas holidays, with free lunch.
After his many goals in football, the English player also won against the English Prime Minister.
Record holder and voted best player of the week in the Champions League
But in addition to his social struggles, Marcus Rashford is also on the rise in sport with his club Manchester United.
Executioner of Paris Saint-Germain, two weeks ago at the Parc des Princes (2-1 success), the English striker took place on the bench Wednesday night against RB Leipzig, during the 2nd day of the group stage of the Champions League.
But its entry into play changed everything.
The Englishman lights up the Mancunian den, Old Trafford, with his talent.
When he entered in the 63rd minute in place of Mason Greenwood, he scored an incredible treble (74th, 78th, 92nd), and at the same time, entered the history of the Cup with the big ears.
The Wythenshawe native becomes the fifth player in Champions League history to score three times after coming off the bench.
And above all, no one had managed to do it as quickly as him.
He is also the first to succeed in doing so in all competitions under the Manchester United jersey since ... Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, his current coach.
Incredible, and he could wear the superhero cape again this Sunday at 5.30 p.m. against Arsenal, where a whole Mancunian people are waiting for a great Marcus Rashford.
