'I just want to play football' – Rashford excited by Villa move as Neville tips him to succeed

Marcus Rashford has joined Aston Villa on loan for the remainder of the 2024-25 season after being sidelined by Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim.

Villa will pay 75% of his wages and have an option to buy him for £40 million. Rashford, who has struggled for game time at United, expressed his excitement to play under Villa's manager Unai Emery, citing admiration for the club’s style and ambitions.

Gary Neville, a former United player, believes the move is crucial for Rashford's career, offering a fresh start in a team that suits his playing style. Rashford aims to regain his form and help Villa after injuries to key players, with his debut potentially coming against Tottenham in the FA Cup.
