A report claims that Manchester United are close to tying teenage striker Marcus Rashford down to a new contract.

Marcus Rashford is reportedly on the verge of agreeing a new contract with Manchester United.

The 18-year-old has made a big impression since breaking into the first team in February, having scored seven goals in 12 appearances.

His current deal is due to expire at the end of next season, which has prompted the Red Devils to begin negotiations, according to TransferMarketWeb.

The report adds that Rashford's new terms are likely to see him pocket around £14,000 a week at Old Trafford.
