Recent reports suggest that Marcus Rashford is more likely to leave Manchester United on a permanent basis.
United head coach, Ruben Amorim is reportedly not willing to hand Rashford a lifeline at Old Trafford, with the team setting a huge asking price. The 27-year old departure from United in January came after a difficult period, with Rashford falling out of favour under Amorim due to suspected attitude and commitment concerns.
Since switching to Villa Park, Rashford has rediscovered his form and is thriving under Unai Emery’s guidance as he continues to play a pivotal role in Villa’s push for Champions League qualification with four assists in nine matches.
However, according to the Daily Star, his future no longer lies at Old Trafford despite his impressive performances in the Midlands. Amorim has prioritised signing a new striker in the summer, reinforcing the belief that Rashford will be moved on permanently once the season concludes.With Amorim planning for the future, United view Rashford’s loan spell as an opportunity to increase his asking price. They are reportedly seeking a permanent deal worth around £60 million ($76m), with Villa emerging as a leading candidate to secure his services. Rashford himself is believed to be keen on extending his stay in the West Midlands, viewing Villa Park as the ideal place to rejuvenate his career under Emery.
