Marcus Rashford looks set to finally commit his long-term future to Manchester United and Paul Scholes knows the importance of keeping the best players on board.
The Athletic reported on Monday that Rashford has agreed a new five-year deal in principle, knocking back 'more lucrative proposals' from teams in the Premier League and across Europe. The forward's current deal had entered its final 12 months this summer, leading to some concern.

"I don’t think they’re quite there yet. You know when you see these teams coming when City, before they won the league, you felt them coming for a couple of years. Liverpool the same.
"I don’t think United are quite at that point
