Rugby Union
Maro Itoje wanted to clarify something following reports education secretary Gavin Williamson confused him with Marcus Rashford.
Due to recent speculation I thought it was necessary to confirm that I am not Marcus Rashford... And whilst we are here my name is not Mario either!! Just a simple Maro Itoje will do...
Much love,
Marcu... I mean Maro Itoje
