Marcus Rashford is reportedly close to signing a new five-year deal with Manchester United that will make him one of the best-paid players in the Premier League.
According to reports by Sportsmail, the England international will renew his contract at Old Trafford, which will keep him at his boyhood club for the long term. The contract renewal comes after a blistering season at Old Trafford, which saw Rashford score 30 goals in 56 games across all competitions.
The 25-year-old’s deal was set to expire in 2024, but his new contract will see him stay at the club until at least 2028.

Meanwhile, contract discussions between Man United and Rashford have been ongoing for some time, with the Red Devils looking to make the England forward among the club’s highest earners.
Rashford was earning £250,000 per week in his previous contract. But according to reports, his salary is set to rise to £375,000 a week when he puts pen to paper in the new deal.
The player is being represented in negotiations with the Manchester club by his agent Dwaine Maynard, and the new deal will see him become the fourth-highest-earning player in the Premier League.
