“Move to Aston Villa surprises me”. Keane believes Rashford should have gone abroad
One of the most shocking transfers in recent years took place during the winter window, as Marcus Rashford joined Aston Villa on loan. Manchester United legend Roy Keane was left puzzled by the move.
Details: Keane has always believed that Rashford needed a fresh challenge in a different league. If the forward has lost his passion for Manchester United, he doubts Aston Villa will reignite his fire for the Red Devils.
Quote: "If he has lost his hunger at Manchester United, how is he going to find it at Aston Villa? Once you lose that hunger, it's very hard to get it back.
Sadly, over the last year or two, especially with the arrival of the new manager, it's been obvious. Clearly, they haven’t seen eye to eye. The manager didn’t get any reaction from Marcus. It’s strange, but I always thought that when Marcus left Manchester United, he would go abroad and try something new.
A new adventure, a different league, a different challenge. Moving to Villa surprises me a bit. I know things are going well for them, but you can’t compare them to Manchester United," said Keane.
