Birmingham, UK – February 1, 2025: Aston Villa have approached Manchester United to explore the possibility of signing forward Marcus Rashford on loan before the transfer window closes.
According to sources close to the negotiations, Villa are keen to strengthen their attacking options and have identified Rashford as a potential addition. The England international has faced an inconsistent season at Old Trafford, leading to speculation about his short-term future.
Manchester United have yet to respond to Villa’s inquiry, and it remains unclear whether they would be open to a loan deal for Rashford. With Erik ten Hag aiming to stabilize his squad for the remainder of the season, United may be reluctant to part with one of their key players, even temporarily.
Aston Villa, currently competing for a top-four finish in the Premier League, see Rashford as a valuable addition who could bolster their attacking depth. However, any potential move would depend on United’s willingness to negotiate and Rashford’s own stance on a temporary switch.
As the transfer window deadline approaches, discussions are expected to intensify. More updates will follow as the situation develops.
