Marcus Rashford spotted 'double wristing' with half a million pound watches
As Marcus Rashford ponders his future, the Manchester United star enjoyed some downtime and wore two watches with an eye-watering value while sitting on a jetski in Saint-Tropez
Football star Marcus Rashford showed off his style by 'double wristing' as he sported a mega-money watch on each arm.
The trendy Manchester United star turned heads in a striking Louis Vuitton outfit in Saint-Tropez, but it wasn't just his clothes that caught the eye. As he soaked up the sun on the French Riviera, people were quick to notice he was sporting two timepieces said to be worth a combined £500,000.
He looked smart with the flashy gold Rolex, with another from Patek Philippe - one of the oldest watch manufacturers in the world - sitting on his other wrist. Rashford, who spent the final five months of the Premier League season on loan at Aston Villa, has been enjoying a luxurious getaway with a group of friends and a mysterious blonde beauty.
The England forward was seen holding what appeared to be a Snus tobacco pouch, a popular smokeless product among fellow footballers. His look was completed with Nike Ben & Jerry's x Dunk Low SB trainers but it wasn't long before they all came off as he cooled off.
Taking a dip in the sea, the Old Trafford goal-getter zipped across the waves on a jet ski as he made the most of his downtime before the next big season. Let's hope his watches were super secure as he tested it out while fully clothed!
Rashford has plenty to ponder on the get-away with his future up in the air. Could he be set for more sun in Spain? Barcelona continue to be linked with the star, who appears to be on his way out of United after another challenging season for player and for club.
With the Premier League season now over, clubs have already begun plotting their moves for the summer transfer window. While there are always many different plots unfolding at the same time, few will have as much focus as the situation around Rashford - but where will he end up?
The forward spent the second half of the campaign on loan at Villa after being banished to the Manchester United wilderness by Ruben Amorim. Overall, the United academy graduate made a good impression at Villa Park, contributing four goals and six assists across all competitions, which earned him a recall to the England squad.
The forward's next chapter is currently unknown, but with Amorim showing no signs that he has changed his stance, it is expected the Old Trafford exit door will be propped open for Rashford. And after defeat to the Red Devils on the final weekend, the Villans failed to qualify for the Champions League.
That would appear to kill any hope of Rashford being persuaded to sign permanently at Villa Park. Marking the end of his first spell away from United, Rashford nevertheless expressed his gratitude to the club. He said on social media: "Just a message of thanks to everyone here at Villa for what has (injury aside) been an incredible few months for me.
"It is a really special club and I appreciated the way Villa fans embraced me with open arms from 1st minute on the pitch. Manager, team, and coaching staff have all been brilliant. I know it is a huge disappointment not to have made the Champions League place which everyone worked so hard all season for but I know this club and team will come back stronger."
