Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has said Marcus Rashford’s superb performance since joining Aston Villa on loan in the January transfer window is good news for the Red Devils.
Rashford scored his first goals for Villa after bagging a brace to help the club beat Preston North End 3-0 to reach the FA Cup semi-finals on Sunday.
His impressive performances earned him a recall to the national team where he featured in this month’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Albania and Latvia.
Speaking about Rashford’s form in his pre-match presser on Monday, ahead of United’s trip to Nottingham Forest for Tuesday’s Premier League tie, Amorim said the club is happy not only with the forward but also with other players doing well on loan.
“We have a lot of games to play and I am focused on my team and my players and Rashford is not my player at the moment,” Amorim said.
“But every player that performs well on loan is good news for my club so we are happy with that.”
