Teenage striker Marcus Rashford has signed a new four-year contract with Manchester United, which will keep him at Old Trafford until 2020.
Expressing delight over his new deal, the 18-year-old academy graduate said he always had been a Manchester United fan and that it was a dream come true for him to be playing with the Old Trafford club, the Guardian reported.
Rashford, who was also given an option to extend for a further year, produced an impressive performance last season, scoring eight goals for United. He made a sensational debut for his boyhood club by scoring a brace in February's Europa League win against FC Midtjylland.
On Friday, the England international also scored within three minutes of his debut during 2-1 friendly victory over Australia at the Stadium of Light.
