Aston Villa close on deal to loan Marcus Rashford from Manchester United

Unai Emery driving move for out-of-favour forward
Villa discussing including option to buy Rashford

Aston Villa are close to agreeing a deal to sign Marcus Rashford on loan for the rest of the season, with Unai Emery driving the move to sign the out-of-favour Manchester United forward.

Villa have been exploring the market in that position after the departure of Jhon Durán, with Matheus Cunha, João Félix, Marco Asensio and Mathys Tel among the options considered. Villa regard Rashford as a low-risk signing given they are unlikely to pay a fee.
