Rashford ready to leave Man United after transfer developments

Rashford is waiting for offers to leave Man United as several clubs have been linked with a move for the England international.

Villa are one of those clubs, having hosted him during his short-term loan at Villa Park last season.

The forward notched 10 goal contributions in all competitions for Unai Emery’s side during a respectable spell.

It has been reported that Man United are keen to sign Ollie Watkins and are willing to include Rashford as part of a deal.

Now, Rashford has accepted he is not part of United and Amorim’s plans.

Options are already being explored ahead of a new chapter, and a new round of talks will start from next week.

With plenty of the window remaining, it appears that news on the Englishman’s next destination will soon become clearer.

Several factors will influence Rashford’s next destination, and there could be multiple twists to come.

Barcelona have the forward on their shortlist, but their primary target is Liverpool winger Luis Diaz.

However, a deal to sign the Colombian is proving tricky, meaning a move for Rashford could come to fruition.

Tottenham are another club interested in Rashford and could sanction a loan deal with United to subsidise his wages.

While there remains a possibility that the England international could go to Villa Park, there are several factors at play that will influence such a move.

Aston Villa need to be ready for anything.
