Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford's campaign to provide free meals for children over half term is "absolutely incredible", says Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp.

Rashford, 22, is sharing messages on Twitter from local businesses that have pledged to support his campaign.

A motion to extend free school meals over holidays during the UK lockdown was rejected by MPs.

"He plays for United, which makes it really tricky," said Klopp.

"But in these moments we are as footballers and as human beings always united.

"What Marcus has started is absolutely incredible. It is so nice."
