Negotiations between Rashford and the club have been going on for a considerable amount of time, as his previous contract was due to expire in 2024.

Under new coach Erik Ten Hag, Rashford experienced a remarkable resurgence last season, scoring 30 goals in 56 games. Since his debut against Midtjylland in 2016, the 25-year-old has scored an impressive 123 goals in 359 games for his beloved club.

Rashford has faced challenges both on and off the pitch throughout his career. After missing a penalty in the Euro 2020 final against Italy, he along with two other England players became victims of racism.

As a result, he was dropped from Gareth Southgate’s England squad for four Nations League matches in June 2022.

However, Rashford’s fortunes took a turn for the better last season, especially after the World Cup, where he scored 10 goals in as many Premier League games as the league restarted. He played a key role in helping Manchester United secure a Champions League spot and even scored in the Carabao Cup final win over Newcastle United.

John Murtough, Manchester United’s director of football, hailed Rashford as the embodiment of the qualities needed to succeed at the club. Murtough commented: “He’s an outstanding talent, but he rҽmains humble, dedicated, and motivated. As he enters his prime years, we believe he still has much to do. do and we can see the desire Marcus possesses to achieve the highest level of success at Manchester United.
