Rashford joins Aston Villa on loan from Manchester United

LONDON: Aston Villa has secured the loan signing of Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford until the end of the season, both Premier League clubs confirmed on Sunday. The move follows a challenging period for the England international, who had been sidelined at Old Trafford in recent weeks.

Rashford, capped 60 times for England, expressed his excitement about the new opportunity. “I was lucky to have a few clubs approach me, but Aston Villa was an easy decision. I really admire the way they’ve been playing this season and the manager’s ambitions. I just want to play football and am excited to get started,” Rashford shared on social media.

The loan transfer provides a fresh start for Rashford and adds firepower to Aston Villa’s attacking lineup as they push for a strong finish this season.
