Must read

Manchester United have announced that Marcus Rashford has signed a new contract running until 2028.

The forward’s previous deal was up at the end of the 2023/24 season, but the Red Devils have always been confident of tying him down to a long-term contract despite lingering interest from PSG.

In a statement, Man Utd said: “Marcus Rashford has signed a new contract that will extend his stay with Manchester United until 30 June 2028.

“The Wythenshawe-born Academy graduate has made 359 appearances and scored 123 goals for the club since making his debut in 2016.

“He capped off a fantastic 2022/23 season, in which he scored 30 goals, by winning the Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year and Players’ Player of the Year awards.”

Speaking to club channels, Rashford said: “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.

“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.”
