Rashford, 25, is enjoying his best-ever season in Manchester, scoring 29 goals across all competitions for the Red Devils this campaign. As such, he is believed to be set to receive a contract that will put him among the club’s highest earners.

While Paris Saint-Germain are reported to be watching Rashford’s situation closely, he is considered a vital part of Man United’s plans, and it looks as though the Red Devils will swiftly begin their approach for a No. 9 once they have secured his future, with Kane at the top of the shortlist.
