Inside Marcus Rashford's rise and fall ahead of his 'fresh start' at Aston Villa: Child-poverty hero was a free-scoring star - but now fans are concerned after 'rough' unveiling, Man United exile, car crash and failed Love Island 'romance'

A new home, and hopefully a new dawn for Marcus Rashford.

Less than a month after shocking world football by revealing his desire to leave Manchester United, the 27-year-old star has made for the Old Trafford exit, calling an end to what has been, without question, the most turbulent spell of his career so far.

Admitting in a post on social media that it came as an 'easy decision', Rashford has signed for Aston Villa on a short-term loan until the end of the season, with a £40million buy option included in his deal this summer.
