Aston Villa have the option to buy Marcus Rashford for £40 million this summer through a purchase clause in the loan deal with Manchester United. But it is uncertain whether the Birmingham club will take advantage of this opportunity.

For the Premier League club, this will be a significant financial burden. Most people believe that if Marcus Rashford wants to stay at Aston Villa, he will have to accept a pay cut. – A cut he probably won’t have to take in the French capital.
