Marcus Rashford is determined to help Manchester United back to the top after signing a new four-year contract at Old Trafford. The 21-year-old England forward has committed himself to the

club until 2023, with the option of a further year. The new deal reportedly puts the Academy graduate among the top earners at United, rewarding him for his progress since breaking into the

first team in 2016. You may like The news also continues a positive summer for the Red Devils following the recent signings of Daniel James and Aaron Wan-Bissaka. Manager Ole Gunnar

Solskjaer is rebuilding after last season’s frustrating sixth-placed Premier League finish and Rashford wants to feature prominently in the Norwegian’s plans. “It hurts every day to see

every week. “Everybody here deserves much, much more than what we’re giving them right now, not only the fans, the club itself. They don’t deserve to be where they are now. “As players,

we’re the ones who have the opportunity to try and forget about the past five, six years and put the club back on track.” Wythenshawe-born Rashford emerged as Solskjaer’s first-choice

striker in the closing weeks of last season. His previous contract was due to expire next year and, with other clubs including Barcelona reportedly interested, United were keen to tie up a

new deal. Even though the team’s form was poor as the 2018-19 campaign drew to a close, Rashford enjoyed working under Solskjaer, who took over from Jose Mourinho last December. Rashford,

who has made 170 appearances for the club, said: “He just gets it. He understands. He’s been a player here. He knows how we may feel in certain moments because he’s been there himself. “The

fact that he understands us way more than a normal manager is why he’s fitted in straight away.” Rashford, who also has 32 England caps, is convinced Solskjaer’s methods will come good. He

said: “That’s what drives me every day. If I didn’t believe it, I wouldn’t be waking up every morning and giving 100 per cent to try and put the club back where they belong. “I believe in

the players, the staff and the manager. The players have the faith in the manager now. “If we’re going to do it, now’s the time. We’re looking forward to the new season. One season is not

going to change it. “It can take two or three seasons but I feel we’re ready to take the first step, and really start showing people that we are Manchester United.” Solskjaer himself

believes the new deal is superb business for United. He told the club’s website, www.manutd.com: “Marcus is one of the most talented English players of his generation. He is an outstanding

player, blessed with natural pace and energy. “Despite being only 21 years old, Marcus already has great experience. He has a fantastic future ahead of him with the club and I am delighted

that he has signed a new contract.”
