ENGLAND football star Marcus Rashford was spotted cosying up with Colombian-born model Erica Correa on a night out in Manchester on Sunday evening, according to reports.
The Manchester United star is thought to have been single since splitting with his teenage sweetheart Lucia Loi in the summer of 2023.
The then-couple, both 26, first started dating at the age of 15 while studying at Ashton on Mersey school in Greater Manchester, and Rashford proposed to Loi in May 2022 during a post-season get-away in California. But the relationship is believed to have “run its course” when the pair decided to separate a year later in June, with sources at the time claiming the couple remained “very close friends”. Rashford prompted speculation that he had reconciled with his ex-fiancee in November last year when the pair were spotted having dinner at a French wine bar in Manchester, but Loi and the England international have not been spotted together publicly since.
As per the Sun, Rashford has now moved on from his former relationship, and is said to have grown close with Correa — who moved to Liverpool as a five-year-old before being spotted on the streets of the city aged 13 and going on to have a glamorous modelling career. Rashford and Correa were seen spending time together on Sunday evening at late-night bar BLVD Manchester. A source told the publication: “Whatever his form on the pitch, off of it Marcus is delivering the goods. He looked like the cat that got the cream on Erica’s arm. They were having a ball. Marcus and Erica were tactile and clearly enjoying each other’s company.”
The pair are believed to have finished the evening in the bar’s VIP area at the Slow Jam Soiree — an R&B night at the venue — with Rashford’s entourage said to be shielding the couple from prying eyes as they enjoyed an intimate conversation.
A spokesperson for Rashford confirmed to the Sun that the player had enjoyed an evening with friends at the nightclub. Correa, 29, grew up in Liverpool, and her career as a model has seen her based in India, Greece, Italy, and the US.
As well as featuring in magazines such as GQ, Grazia, Harper’s Bazaar, Women’s Health, and Ella, Correa also played a starring role in Tom Grennan’s music video for his single “Sober”.
Rashford has struggled for even form this season under manager Erik ten Hag, with fans earlier in the campaign wondering if his relationship with Loi had been a “lucky charm” for the academy graduate. Rashford could yet look to rediscover his prodigious form away from Old Trafford, with reports that the club may put their star up for sale over the summer as new part-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe pulls off a complete overhaul on the squad. The 26-year-old is one of a number of regular starters who could be moved on during the upcoming transfer window, with Paris Saint-Germain — who held talks with Rashford’s representatives two years ago — thought to still have the player under consideration.
