His gesture is a compliment to his supervisor Erik ten Hag, who has helped Rashford, who has nine years of experience, develop a positive outlook.
Premier League goals so far this season.
Other celebrities have copied the celebration, including Danny Welbeck of Brighton, Joelinton of Newcastle United, and Bukayo Saka of Arsenal.
Now Rashford has applied to the UK's Intellectual Property Office to trademark a silhouette design.
If passed, the patent would protect against bootlegs for ten years on everything from computer games and digital images to sports gear, clothing, shoes, phone cases, books educational and motivational services.
An intellectual property lawyer said: "This will give Marcus and his advisors the ability to take action against third parties who may be using the relevant image in the course of trade without consent."
Explaining the motivation behind the new celebration, England ace Rashford said: "It's a completely different energy around the club. That puts me in a better headspace and I just feel really motivated now. That's the area I was struggling in."
