The striker is in the form of his life at the moment and has scored 24 times in all competitions in the ongoing campaign.
Rashford has failed to score just once in Manchester United’s last ten Premier League games and is considered one of the best attackers in the world at the moment.
His current deal runs out at the end of next season and Erik ten Hag has admitted that agreeing on a new contract with the striker is a priority for the club.
Manchester United are also in the middle of a process that could lead to new owners by April but it has been claimed that will not have an effect on the contract talks.
Conversations have already taken place between Manchester United and Rashford over a new deal.
The 25-year-old is an academy graduate at Old Trafford and Manchester United are pushing to find an agreement soon.
The takeover talk will not hinder any potential progress as Manchester United have already set a budget for next season in terms of new signings and contract renewals.
They are mindful of the fact that regardless of who is in charge, their budget will have to adhere to FFP regulations.
And agreeing on a new deal with Rashford is one of the centrepiece of Manchester United’s plans going forward.
