Marcus Rashford has agreed to sign a five-year deal with Manchester United after turning down lucrative offers from other clubs.
Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford has reportedly reached an agreement in principle to extend his contract with the club for another five years, according to The Athletic.
The 25-year-old English international has been in negotiations with the club for some time now, as his existing contract was set to expire in 2024. However, Rashford is now in the final stages of negotiations to finalize the negotiated contract that will keep him at Old Trafford until 2028.
Several top clubs across Europe, including Paris Saint-Germain, were keen on signing the attacker and reportedly offered more lucrative deals than Manchester United. However, Rashford has decided to continue his career at Old Trafford.
Rashford's commitment to Manchester United is a significant boost to the club's future prospects. The talented forward was an integral part of the team's success during the 2022–23 season. This is where they won the Carabao Cup and finished third in the Premier League. He scored 30 goals in 56 appearances across all competitions for the Red Devils.
Rashford's new five-year contract secures Manchester United's attacking prowess for the foreseeable future. His consistent performances and goal-scoring ability will be vital for United's aspirations to challenge for domestic and European honors this season.
Marcus Rasford was at his absolute best last season; he helped Manchester United secure more vital points with his goals both at home and away. His goals and superb form also helped Manchester United clinch third place and qualify for the Champions League this coming season.
A lot of clubs have inquired about signing him this transfer season, but it seems United have already recognized how important he is to their squad, and Eric Ten Hag could not afford to lose such a prolific striker, looking at how hard a striker has been for the Old Trafford club this season.
