Just five games into his loan move at Aston Villa, Marcus Rashford has already made a shocking decision regarding his transfer to the club.
Ruben Amorim, the manager of Manchester United, was not impressed by Rashford’s training levels and proceeded to exclude him from matchday squads. As a result, Rashford started to fall out of favour at Manchester United.
A number of European clubs were rumoured to be interested in signing Rashford after he expressed his desire to move on from his boyhood club and take on a new challenge.
Villa, on the other hand, made a move to acquire the 27-year-old player, which made it possible for him to continue playing in the Premier League and also to return to the Champions League through a loan deal that would last until the end of the season.
Because Jhon Duran moved to Al Nassr for a fee of 62.5 million pounds, he was able to take over the No. 9 shirt that was previously held by Duran. Since then, he has made five appearances for Unai Emery’s team, including two assists in the comeback victory over Chelsea.
Despite the fact that Rashford’s contract with United is set to expire in 2028, it appears that the likelihood of him returning to the club while Amorim is in charge is extremely low.
In addition, Rashford is reportedly ready to make his move to Villa permanent after experiencing a sense of “revitalisation” in his new environment, as reported by The Sun.
As a result of the allegations that Amorim made, he has left a significant impression on his teammates, manager, and fans at Villa Park, and his efforts in training have not gone unnoticed.
There are rumours circulating that Villa has the ability to acquire Rashford for a price of forty million pounds. This amount would be considered a pure profit for United on their balance sheet due to the fact that Rashford is a homegrown player.
Despite the fact that Rashford has not yet scored his first goal while playing for Villa, he has consistently displayed a high level of performance whenever he has been on the pitch. He is optimistic that he will be able to re-enter the England squad with a clean slate under the direction of Thomas Tuchel, the new manager.
On the occasion of reaching 60 caps for the Three Lions, Rashford made his most recent appearance for the national team, which was against Brazil a little over a year ago.
The rule of Rashford is enforced at Villa.
The Daily Mail reports that teammates have effectively been prohibited from discussing Rashford with one another. Youri Tielemans was asked for his thoughts on Rashford’s first start in the mixed zone during the recent match for Manchester United, which ended in a 2-2 draw with Liverpool.
