A weekly salary of £325,000 is going to be paid to the striker for Manchester United for the next five years.
After the news was made, the club additionally published a number of photographs featuring the England player, along by the tagline “Family ties” and the lines “This is home.”
In one of the photographs, Rashford’s loved ones are seen resting an arm on his shoulder while he is seated in the middle of them. In another one, Rashford is shown wearing a large smile that extends from ear to ear as he is offered a kiss on each cheek.
In addition, the primary photograph has him seated on an armchair in the middle of the frame, dressed in a stylish jacket and trousers, with his family members posed on either side of him.

The player, who was 25 years old at the time, had shown interest in Paris Saint-Germain during the lengthy discussions.
And there were a number of extremely wealthy Saudi clubs who were waiting to make a move for the front man who stormed back to form in the previous season after suffering from injuries for two years. He scored 30 goals in 56 appearances during that season.
In spite of the fact that he had always desired to re-commit himself to the club that he had joined eighteen years earlier, he was also adamant on wildly increasing his weekly wage of two hundred thousand pounds and obtaining a salary that was comparable to the one that is offered to the most prominent players in the game.
Despite this, Rashford’s massive new salary still only places him in the fourth position among the club’s highest-paid players, behind only Casemiro and Jadon Sancho, who each earn £350,000 per week, and Raphael Varane, who earned £340,000 per week.
However, now that his future is secure, he is really looking forward to getting down to business on the field.
He made the following statement: “When I was seven years old, I joined Manchester United with a dream.”
Every time I have the privilege of donning the shirt, I am still driven by the same enthusiasm, pride, and ambition to achieve success that I have always had.
“Although I have already had some incredible experiences at this incredible club, there is still a great deal more for me to accomplish, and I am unwaveringly committed to achieving our goal of winning additional trophies in the years to come.”
He continued by saying, “As a United fan who has been a fan for my entire life, I am aware of the responsibility that comes with representing this badge, and I as much as anyone else feel the highs and lows.”
“I can guarantee you that I will do all in my power to assist the squad in reaching the level that we are capable of, and I can sense the same degree of determination across the surrounding dressing room.
It is impossible for me to express how thrilled I am about the future under this manager.
A match against Lyon will take place in Edinburgh this afternoon, marking United’s return to preseason competition.
