Marcus Rashford bids farewell to his Manchester United teammates as he nears a shock move to Aston Villa

Marcus Rashford has said his goodbyes to teammates at Manchester United on Saturday as he heads towards his move to Aston Villa.

The 27-year old spoke to United staff and players at Carrington after being given the green light for his loan switch to Villa Park.

Personal terms have been agreed and the finer details of terms between clubs are being ironed out.

Unai Emery has been keen to strengthen his striking options and add pace following the £65m sale of Jhon Duran to Al Nassr. But the move for Rashford is not without risk following his performances for United in recent months.
