Man Utd set to swap salaries between Rashford and De Gea

Manchester United are close to securing Marcus Rashford to a new contract.

The England striker is now a step away from penning new terms which will make him the highest paid player at the club.

The Sun says Rashford will soon earn £375,000-a-week deal.

And the Red Devils plan to fund the near double-your-money hike through a salary swap with keeper David de Gea.

Rashford is currently on £200,000-a-week, with De Gea's £400,000-a-week contract due to expire.

United's offer to De Gea is worth Rashford's current wages and should he sign, it would effectively see him and Rashford trade salaries.
