Marcus Rashford scored at the Etihad to continue his fine form against Manchester City but ultimately could not help Aston Villa avoid defeat in a crucial match for Champions League qualification

Graeme Souness has questioned whether Aston Villa should sign Marcus Rashford permanently from Manchester United this summer. Rashford has made a positive impact at Villa Park, but Souness harbours concerns over his price tag and the knock-on effect his earnings would have on the club's wage structure.

Marcus Rashford is aware that he will not play for Manchester United again while Ruben Amorim is still the manager, according to reports. The 27-year-old was allowed to join Aston Villa on loan in the January transfer window after being frozen out of United’s first-team squad by Amorim.
