Man Utd forward, Marcus Rashford has been named as the Premier League’s most trolled player on Twitter.
The Compare.bet report found that Rashford had the most negative tweets directed at him in the period between August 6 and September 15.
Rashford has been particularly prolific on social media in recent months, fighting child hunger in the UK.
