Rashford, in difficulty and regularity under Ruben Amorim, was loaned for six months to Villa Park. This transfer relaunched his career at half mast, the striker having issued four assists in nine games since his arrival. The legend of United, Ryan Giggs, who worked with Rashford during his early years, recalls his first discovery of the talent of Rashford and the way he was immediately judged too good to be ignored.
In an interview with the Daily Mail, he said: ” I worked with Marcus and I remember having gone with Louis to see him train with the reserve. It was one of those moments when it was impossible to leave it aside and it was a real breath of fresh air. »»
Rashford will not come back
However, he recognized that Rashford had trouble playing with the same freedom to Old Trafford who had made him one of the most promising young talents in England. “” Seen from the outside, it looks like he has the world on his shoulders and that he has forgotten what it means playing freely. “ he said. “It's great to see him succeed in Villa. I don't know if he will come back. »»
While United is considering the return of Rashford next season, reports suggest that the 27-year-old would like to stay in Aston Villa beyond the 2024-25 season. According to The Sun, Rashford sees Villa as the ideal club to rebuild its career under the direction of Emery, a long -term future in the West Midlands being more attractive than a return to United.
