Manchester United winger Marcus Rashford has yet again won the hearts of the footballing world after reserving two tickets for NHS duo who are currently helping the country battle the epidemic.
Twitter user Josh Howes turned to the social media platform to inquire about Rashford who has been out of action since the turn of the year. The England international suffered a serious back injury that required surgery.
Howes, who works in the National Health Service along with his wife, posted the tweet with a picture of themselves wearing the full gear of personal protective equipment in a bid to treat the patients who have contracted the virus. Howes’ tweet read:
I miss football!!!! @MarcusRashford how’s the recovery going???” the tweet read. “Wishing you well man. Literally can’t wait to see you rip it up again! “Me and the wife can get some tickets for O.T [Old Trafford] and we can stop having to wear this nonsense for 13 hours a day! #NHSCovidHeroes #NHSworkers.”
I’ve got 2 tickets reserved for you mate. Looking forward to celebrating the real superstars around here ♥️

It did not take long, as Rashford proceeded to respond to the tweet and informing the duo that he has reserved two tickets for them. Rashford’s reply read:

The conversation didn’t end there as Howes proceeded to thank the 22-year-old which also prompted a response from the footballer himself.
