Overview

  • Marcus Rashford is recovering from a hamstring injury sustained in late April and has traveled to Dubai for a warm-weather rehabilitation program.
  • Aston Villa is reconsidering the £40 million buy option in Rashford's loan deal, with concerns about his wages, injury, and off-field distractions.
  • Rashford faced criticism for attending a boxing match on the same day he missed Villa's FA Cup semi-final due to injury.
  • Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has ruled out a return for Rashford, leaving the forward to explore permanent or loan moves, with a preference for Champions League clubs like Barcelona.
  • Rashford has reportedly expressed willingness to take a pay cut to facilitate a move, but his high salary remains a key obstacle for potential suitors.
