Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho are reportedly the latest investors in Krept and Sasha Ellese’s company Nala’s Baby. 

The Manchester United duo are the first ballers to join the company’s star-studded list of investors, with boxer Anthony Joshua, rapper Nafe Smallz and Yung Filly all investing in the company since its launch two years ago.

Nala’s Baby makes natural specialist skin and hair care creams and oils for young children and babies, offering a range of responsibly manufactured products.

After realising there was a lack of natural, baby-specific products parents Sasha Ellese Gilbert and Krept, of rap duo Krept and Konan, launched the company in 2020 – and within two years were stocking their products in Sainsbury's.

Speaking on the deal, Sancho said: “I’m proud to get behind and show support for a brand that’s offering a much-needed hand to parents who want the best for their children.”

Rashford and Sancho are no strangers to the world of business, with both players looking to bolster their respective investment firms. They know that playing careers are lucrative, but they don’t last forever. By investing in a brand completely outside of football, they are encouraging the ballers of tomorrow to be smart with their money and to promote responsible companies trying to make a difference.
