Manchester United and Aston Villa are discussing a early return for Marcus Rashford. Injury may end his loan early, but his long-term future is still up in the air.

Manchester United have reportedly entered into discussions with Aston Villa about bringing Marcus Rashford back to Old Trafford before the end of his loan spell. The 27-year-old is in real danger of missing the rest of the season due to a hamstring injury, which has struck weeks before the most important summer transfer window of his career.

Rashford, 27, swapped Manchester for Birmingham at the end of the January transfer window after a public dispute with Ruben Amorim, agreeing to join the Villains on loan until the end of the season with a £40 million buy-option included in the deal.
