Manchester United are ready to make Marcus Rashford one of their highest paid players, after a breakthrough in contract talks, ESPN reports.
Rashford is now close to signing a new five-year deal at Old Trafford.
The England striker's new deal will see him earn around £200,000 a week.
United have been aware of interest in the England international from clubs including Barcelona, Real Madrid and Manchester City, but there is growing confidence they have done enough to tie the 21-year-old down to a fresh contract.
An academy graduate who has been at the club since the age of seven, Rashford is central to manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's vision for the future.
Rashford is still on the terms agreed after his breakthrough season under Louis van Gaal in 2016.
He has scored 45 goals in 170 appearances since making his senior debut in February that year, winning 32 England caps.
