Marcus Rashford 'rescued' Aston Villa star Alisha Lehmann in Chinawhite nightclub

Marcus Rashford has been praised as a 'gent' after he reportedly saved a woman from the attention of a group of blokes.

The Manchester United striker was out clubbing at Chinawhite in Manchester last month when he saw fellow footballer Alisha Lehmann.

According to reports, the Aston Villa forward was allegedly receiving some unwanted attention from a few lads in the bar.

While he'd never met the Swiss international before, Rashford is said to have recognised her and stepped in.

After spotting the commotion, he apparently went across and invited Lehmann over to his booth with his mates.

A source from the nightclub said the England player was 'a true gent'.

The insider told the Sun: "Marcus cleared a table and invited her and her friends to join them. It was the first time they’d met but he knew who Alisha was.

“They exchanged a few words and she thanked him then they carried on partying with their separate sets of friends. She thought he was a gent."

Rashford has enjoyed an excellent individual season in Erik ten Hag’s first year in charge at Old Trafford, with Manchester United still hoping to complete a domestic cup double when they face Manchester City in the FA Cup final on Saturday 3 June.

Lehmann, meanwhile, will be hoping that Aston Villa can finish their season strongly, with Carla Ward’s side currently fifth in the Women’s Super League.

The 24-year-old came off the bench against Manchester United on Friday but could not prevent her side letting a 2-1 lead slip as Millie Turner snatched a late 3-2 victory for the league leaders.
