Marcus Rashford has described claims that he’s demanding £500,000 a week at Manchester United as ‘complete nonsense’.
The forward is in the form of his life at Old Trafford having scored 27 goals and bagging nine assists so far this term.

It’s that sort of form that has put Rashford in the best possible position for negotiating a new contract at the club.
After United triggered a new deal for the player, the 25-year-old now has just over a year left on his contract at the club, meaning that the coming months will be crucial in deciding his future.
As a result, reports have suggested that Rashford is demanding a cool half-a-million per week in order to extend his stay at the club, amid interest from Paris Saint-Germain.
This comes after the French giants reportedly offered him £400,000 to join them, an offer that he turned down.
Further reports also claimed that he is now demanding £500,000-a-week to commit his long term future at Old Trafford.
But taking to social media, Rashford said that his huge demands are simply not true.
He said: “Just before this one starts to do the rounds!

“It’s complete nonsense. The club and make [my]self have been respectful to one another, and that’s how it will remain.
“My focus is purely on finishing as well as possible in the league and winning trophies.”
