Marcus Rashford is at the centre of a multi-million pound scramble as the world’s leading sportswear giants try to prise him away from Nike.
The Manchester United striker is in line for a hugely lucrative boot sponsorship deal that will send his already iconic status soaring.
Puma are among the companies keen on making Rashford the face of their brand - though industry sources expect all the major brands to make approaches.
Rashford’s current deal with Nike is expiring, news that has alerted a host of athletic-wear firms to the England star’s potential availability.
