Manchester United forward Marcus Rashfordwill probably sign a new long-term deal at Old Trafford, says transfer reporter Dean Jones.

The England international is out of contract at the end of the season, but Jones does not think Erik ten Hag is in any real danger of losing him.

Man United contract news – Marcus Rashford

Jones has previously told GIVEMESPORT that Rashford wants to prolong his stay at Old Trafford.

The 25-year-old has come through the ranks at United and been there his entire career so far, but he has now entered the final year of his contract.

As per Transfermarkt, the Red Devils, however, do have the option to extend his current deal by another 12 months.

Rashford has returned to his best form under Ten Hag this season, scoring eight goals in 19 appearances, so he is probably not someone who the Dutchman will want to lose.

What has Dean Jones said about Marcus Rashford’s contract situation at Man United?

Jones is expecting Rashford to put pen to paper on an extension soon.

Speaking to GMS, the journalist said: “In the not-too-distant future, I think we probably will see Marcus Rashford signing a new longer deal.”

Rashford, who Jose Mourinho once hailed as “phenomenal” (via United’s official Twitter page), can count himself unfortunate to have been excluded from England’s starting XI for the 3-0 win against Senegal on Sunday.

Gareth Southgate’s side obviously got the job done, but Rashford probably deserved a start after his heroics versus Wales the game prior.

The United star, valued at around £47m by Transfermarkt, scored twice as the Three Lions went on to win the match 3-0. He also registered in the 6-2 triumph over Iran, so it is fair to say that he is having a great tournament over in Qatar.
