Manchester United has decided on the future of Marcus Rashford

November 30, 2022

Due to the expiration of his current contract in the summer of 2022, Manchester United is prepared to lock up forward Marcus Rashford to a new long-term deal

Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano claims that Manchester United would try to keep Marcus Rashford by offering him new terms. Rashford delivered for England in their recent World Cup match against Wales, as his two well-struck goals put an end to the Dragons’ hopes of advancing.

Some of Marcus Rashford’s recent success may be attributed to Cristiano Ronaldo’s shaky play this season for Manchester United. The young star of Manchester United’s youth program will be eternally indebted to Louis van Gaal for giving him his big break with the first team. And ever since that fateful day, the 25-year-old’s life has been nothing but a roller coaster of excitement.

Fortunately, Erik ten Hag has arrived at this moment since he has big shoes to fill. The technical improvements made by Manchester United’s manager are very noticeable, as he has emerged as the team’s primary goal scorer this season.

That form has spilt over to the international scene, where he has scored three goals in three games for England. With just six months left on his contract, Rashford’s recent play has attracted the attention of many teams. As a result, the Manchester United front office can expect to be inundated with bids. Rashford has reportedly been connected to Atletico Madrid in recent news.

The Red Devils have the option to activate an additional year at the end of the contract. However, Manchester United will not go with the simple approach and instead will give him a new contract to recognize his hard work on the field. Rashford now receives a salary of around £200,000 per week. Since Ronaldo’s unexpected exit has freed up a lot of funds for Manchester United, he is also anticipated to get a sizable salary raise.

Rashford’s Ronaldo-esque free-kick may serve as a reminder to ten Hag that he already has a possible successor to the Portuguese superstar at his disposal. And they want to extend a long-term contract offer to the 25-year-old striker soon.

Although his lack of consistency has been a hindrance, he has made the most of his chances when they have presented themselves. In addition, Rashford might be the game-changer for Manchester United if they want to compete seriously after the World Cup. It has been reported recently that they are optimistic about signing the 25-year-old to a new deal.
