England forward, Marcus Rashford has signed a five-year contract extension with Manchester United

The England international, who has agreed a deal until the summer of 2028, rejected more lucrative offers from England and abroad to stay at Manchester United. His previous deal expired at the end of the upcoming 2023/24 season.

Rashford was rejuvenated under manager Erik Ten Hag last season after a difficult 18 months and went on to be United’s top scorer with 30 goals in all competitions.

The 25-year-old became the first player to breach the 30-goal mark for United since Robin van Persie in the 2012/13 season.

Rashford’s goals last season helped United secure a top-four finish and a return to the Champions League, which has helped convince him the club is on the right path under Ten Hag.

“I joined Manchester United as a seven-year-old boy with a dream. That same passion, pride, and determination to succeed still drive me every time I have the honor of wearing the shirt,” said Rashford after signing his new deal.

“I’ve already had some amazing experiences at this incredible club, but there is still a lot more to achieve and I remain relentlessly determined to win more trophies in the years ahead.

“As a United fan all my life, I know the responsibility that comes with representing this badge and feel the highs and lows as much as anyone. I can assure you that I will give everything to help the team reach the level we are capable of, and I can feel the same determination around the dressing room. I couldn’t be more excited for the future under this manager.”

Rashford has made 359 appearances and scored a total of 123 goals for the club since making his debut in 2016.

Man Utd football director John Murtough added: “Ever since he joined our Academy 18 years ago, Marcus has epitomised what it takes to succeed as a Manchester United player. He is a brilliant talent but also humble, dedicated and driven”.
