London: Marcus Rashford wants to put Manchester United “back where they belong” after ending speculation over his future by penning a new four-year contract to remain at Old Trafford.
The 21-year-old had attracted interest from Barcelona, among others, with his previous deal running out in 2020.
However, Rashford, a product of the United academy, wants to lead the rebuilding at United and believes he has felt the Red Devils’ fall from grace under several different managers in recent years more than most as a fan of the club.
“It is a huge sense of pride and a huge feeling for me to sign the contract,” Rashford said.
“Manchester United are one big family. Some clubs don't have that. That's why United are more than a football club to me. Me being a fan changes the emotional side. Say we lose a game, it affects me more than it should because I’m a fan,” he added.
