Wythenshawe-born Rashford has been a Red since he was seven years old and encapsulates everything it means to be United through and through, which was proven by the fact he turned down lucrative offers from clubs across England and Europe to stay with his boyhood team.
Rashford’s sensational season
He is on the back of his most prolific season to date and the first 30-goal campaign of his career. The England international was named Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year and Players’ Player of the Year at the end of the term for his scintillating efforts and contributions to the club.

Rashford, 25, has played a pivotal role at United since making his debut in 2016 and he is now seen as one of Erik ten Hag’s most irreplaceable and influential figures.
The Carrington graduate said: “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.”
