Reports now suggest that United chiefs are keen to tie the winger down to a long-term deal, with the star striker having just one year left on his current contract.
According to The Mirror, Rashford is set to agree a new contract extension at Old Trafford worth nearly £100m.
The bumper deal will make him United's highest-paid player, as he will pocket around £375,000 a week.
Who is Man United's highest paid player?
David de Gea is the club's highest earner, the Spaniard reportedly pocketing £375,000 weekly salary. However, his well-earned contract is coming to an end and has yet to be renewed.
Given his age and questionable form, the former Atletico Madrid goalkeeper is unlikely to get a raise if he decides to continue at Manchester United.
In contrast, the 32-year-old is willing to take a big pay cut to secure a contract extension.
Meanwhile, Jadon Sancho, Raphael Varane and Casemiro are among Man United's other highest-paid players.
The highest paid Man United stars according to Spotrac:
first. David de Gea - £375,000 per week
2. Jadon Sancho - £350,000/week
3. Raphael Varane - £340,000 per week
4. Casemiro - £300,000 per week
5. Anthony Martial - £250,000/week
6. Bruno Fernandes - £240,000 per week
7. Marcus Rashford - £200,000/week
8. Antoine - £200,000 per week
9. Harry Maguire - £190,000 per week
10. Luke Shaw - £150,000/week
ten. Christian Eriksen - £150,000 per week
