In an interview with The Overlap, Rashford expressed his admiration for the legendary Brazilian striker and disclosed that Ronaldo remains one of his all-time favorites. The Englishman fondly reminisced about watching Ronaldo's mesmerizing skills on YouTube during his formative years.
Rashford stated that former Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney and legend Cristiano Ronaldo were also his favorites. However, when asked about that one player in world football he would play with, Rashford responded (via Utd Report):
Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima, aptly nicknamed as 'O Fenomeno,' was a goal machine whose career spanned the late 1990s and early 2000s. At Barcelona, he netted an impressive 47 goals in 49 appearances in the 1996-97 season, announcing himself as a true force to be reckoned with. His spell at Inter Milan saw him achieve even greater heights, scoring 59 goals in 99 appearances for the Nerazzurri.
However, Ronaldo's time at Real Madrid was a defining chapter in his career, where he etched his name in footballing folklore. In 177 appearances for Los Blancos, he scored a remarkable 103 goals, shocking fans with his clinical precision. He later had short spells at AC Milan and Corinthians.
Ronaldo also left an indelible mark on the international stage, representing Brazil across 98 caps. He scored a staggering 62 goals, helping Brazil secure the 2002 FIFA World Cup and winning the Golden Boot.
