Man United 'speed up Rashford contract talks'

Manchester United are reportedly in the process of offering Marcus Rashford a double-your-money deal amid growing interest from Real Madrid.

European champions Madrid are said to be eyeing up an end-of-season move for the England international, along with Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen.

According to the Daily Star, news of a potential bid from Real has forced United to speed up contract talks with Rashford, who currently earns £75,000 a week at Old Trafford.

Executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward is said to have taken charge of the discussions, and he is willing to increase the academy product's wages to £150,000 a week, on top of bonuses.

The 21-year-old, used 13 times by Jose Mourinho in all competitions this term, is tied down by United until the end of next season.
