Aston Villa have decided whether to sign Marcus Rashford from Manchester United or not for £40 million.
The Englishman joined Unai Emery’s men in January on loan, and he scored twice in 10 Premier League appearances and four in 17 in all competitions.
The Villans had an option to make the move permanent for £40m, along with his hefty wages.
Will Rashford join Aston Villa?
Despite the possibility of a decent-to-good fee for the forward, the Birmingham-based club have revealed that they will not be pursuing a deal for the 27-year-old forward.
Along with Rashford, the Villans also bade farewell to Marco Asensio and Axel Disasi, whom they loaned from Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea, respectively.
“Marco Asensio, Marcus Rashford and Axel Disasi each joined Villa in February on loan deals until the end of the 2024/25 season.
“Attacking midfielder Asensio enjoyed 21 outings in claret and blue, scoring eight goals, including three across both legs of our UEFA Champions League Round of 16 tie against Club Brugge.
“Forward Rashford made 17 appearances for the club and registered a total of nine goal contributions across all competitions, bagging a brace in our FA Cup quarter-final against Preston North End.
“Defender Disasi arrived from Chelsea and made 10 appearances for Villa, his first coming against Ipswich Town in mid-February.
“Everyone at Aston Villa would like to thank each of the players for their efforts and amazing commitment to the club and wish them all the very best for the future.”
What’s next for Aston Villa?
Aston Villa, who return to pre-season in July, host Newcastle United on the opening weekend of the 2025-26 Premier League season.
