Rashford's previous contract was due to expire next summer and he was in talks over an extension on improved terms for a lengthy period.

Paris Saint-Germain were among clubs who had been monitoring the England forward's situation.

But the 25-year-old has now committed his future to United, where he has been since the age of seven.

The deal is understood to be worth more than £350,000 per week and will put Rashford among the highest-paid players in the Premier League.

Speaking on his new contract, he 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.”

Rashford was a star performer for United under Erik ten Hag last season, scoring 30 goals in 56 games in all competitions.

In a double boost for the club, United have also agreed a deal to sign Andre Onana.

United have had an offer worth around £47million accepted by Inter Milan for the goalkeeper, who will replace David de Gea as their new number one.

He will join Mason Mount as a new arrival in Manchester, with the former Chelsea midfielder arriving for £55m.

Despite Rashford's career-best 30-goal season under Ten Hag last time out, the Dutch manager is still keen on adding another forward option.

With Tottenham's Harry Kane unattainable due to his £100m-plus price tag, United have turned to Atalanta's 20-year-old striker Rasmus Hojlund.

However, it's now understood that the Italian side are demanding £85m for the Danish striker, with United previously hoping a deal could be struck at the £40m mark.
