Manchester United have confirmed that English attacker Marcus Rashford has signed a new contract with the club until June 2028, ending the speculation surrounding his future.
The 25-year-old was in outstanding form for the Red Devils during the 2022-23 campaign, finding the back of the net on 30 occasions in 56 appearances, in addition to contributing 11 assists.
There had been uncertainty surrounding his long-term future at the club, though, with his previous deal due to expire at the end of next season.
Paris Saint-Germain have recently been heavily linked with the England international, who has played 359 times for the Red Devils, scoring 123 goals and contributing 68 assists in the process.
However, it has now been confirmed that Rashford has penned a new five-year deal until the summer of 2028, providing head coach Erik ten Hag with a huge boost ahead of the new season.
"I joined Manchester United as a seven-year-old boy with a dream. That same passion, pride, and determination to succeed still drives me every time I have the honour of wearing the shirt," Rashford said in a statement on the club's official website.
"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."
Meanwhile, Man United 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. As he enters his prime years, we know there is still so much more to come from him, and we can see the hunger that Marcus feels to achieve the highest levels of success here at Manchester United.
"Working with Erik ten Hag and his coaches is the perfect environment for Marcus to continue to develop into one of the best attacking players in the world."
Rashford returned to training with Man United on Saturday to prepare for the new season, but he is not in the squad for Wednesday's pre-season clash with Lyon in Edinburgh.
The forward will travel with the Red Devils for their pre-season tour of the United States, though, with the club preparing for their 2022-24 Premier League opener against Wolverhampton Wanderers on August 14. body check tags ::
