In the Premier League, players like Bukayo Saka and Newcastle’s Joelinton have also performed Rashford’s celebration.
It has extended to other sports such as tennis and even cricket where Jofra Archer also did it.
The Peoples Person reported that Rashford moved to trademark the celebration – something that could enable the United star to make a lot of money.
The head-pointing celebration has become a regular occurrence with Rashford currently in devastating goal-scoring form.
The 25-year-old has scored 26 goals and notched nine assists in all competitions for United this season.
That’s the same amount he scored in his last two seasons combined.
Alongside Erling Haaland, Rashford has the most goal involvements in the Premier League this season.
In Europe, only Kylian Mbappe and Haaland have scored more than the United number 10.
