For the first time in years, Marcus Rashford has rediscovered his form at Aston Villa after struggling at Manchester United. The 27-year-old forward, who was sidelined by United manager Ruben Amorim, has already made a strong impact since joining Villa on loan in February.

In just six games and 285 minutes of action, Rashford has provided three assists, including setting up Marco Asensio’s goal in Villa’s 2-0 FA Cup win over Cardiff. In that match, he also created six goal-scoring chances—the most he ever managed in a single game during his 426 appearances for United.

Fans were stunned by this statistic, with some even comparing him to Andrea Pirlo. Rashford, who scored 138 goals and provided 63 assists in nine years at United, now looks rejuvenated under Unai Emery. Supporters have praised his revival, with some urging him to continue his impressive form.

Despite rumors linking him to Barcelona, the club’s sporting director Deco recently downplayed their interest. As Rashford considers his long-term future, his performances at Villa could play a crucial role in determining his next move. For now, he seems to be thriving in a new environment, proving he is still a top-class player.
