Marcus Rashford agrees new long-term Man Utd contract

Marcus Rashford has agreed the terms of a new five-year contract with Manchester United, 90min understands.

90min revealed last month that talks between United and the England international were close to a positive conclusion, with the Red Devils keen to reward Rashford's emergence as one of the Premier League's deadliest forwards with a huge new contract.

A full agreement has now been reached, with sources confirming to 90min that Rashford's new deal will see him become United's highest-paid player.

It is understood that Rashford had the chance to earn a higher contract from elsewhere - Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain were prepared to offer an enormous wage - but the 25-year-old has never entertained a move away from Old Trafford.

Rashford has long made it clear to suitors that his priority is to remain with United and he has now agreed the terms of a deal which will bring an end to the speculation over his future.

United are stepping up their preparations for the new season and are inching closer to a deal to sign goalkeeper Andre Onana after an agreement over a £46m fee was struck with Inter.

A five-year contract is also on the table for Onana, with manager Erik ten Hag looking to tie up the core of his squad for years to come.

One player who faces an uncertain future is centre-back and former captain Harry Maguire, who saw the armband taken away from him by Ten Hag.

90min understands that Maguire has been told he is free to leave Old Trafford this summer. The 30-year-old has been keen to stay and fight for a place in the squad but has once again been urged to consider his options.
