Manchester United completed Marcus Rashford’s loan move to Aston Villa late on Sunday, but while the Red Devils might have hoped this deal would lead to a player moving in the opposite direction, it appears to have had the opposite effect.

Manchester United Premier League title-winner Paul Parker has had his say on Marcus Rashford’s transfer to Aston Villa, branding the player "lazy". Rashford has moved to Villa Park on loan from Old Trafford until the end of the season and Villa could make the switch permanent in the summer for £40m.

A former Manchester United player reckons Aston Villa are taking a “big gamble” on Marcus Rashford as the 27-year-old is “known for being lazy”. Rashford secured a loan move to Aston Villa before the January transfer window closed and they have an option to buy him in the summer for around £40m.
