Marcus Rashford

Marcus Rashford is in line for a lucrative new £300,000-a-week contract at Manchester United, Eko Hot Blog has gathered.

The forward will sign an extension in the new year which will bolster his £200,000-a-week salary, having impressed for the Reds so far in 2020-21.

Rashford signed a contract extension before the beginning of the 2019/2020 season, which saw his weekly pay package significantly move up to a whooping £200,000 a week.

The Three Lions striker repaid that promotion with 22 strikes last season, and has continued that scintillating form this season, scoring 12 goals in 20 outings for the Red Devils.

The England forward will now become the highest paid player at Old Trafford, ahead of Frenchman, Paul Pogba, who is currently on a £290,000 weekly wage.

Rashford will become the second United player to be offered an improved contract, with Portuguese midfielder, Bruno Fernandes having already been offered an upward review of his contract that will see his £100,000 a week package doubled.
