Manchester United have raised the asking price for Marcus Rashford this summer after his bright start to his loan spell at Aston Villa.

Rashford joined Villa on loan in January until the end of the season with a reported option to make the deal permanent for around €47.5 million.

The 27-year-old had been on the market after the attacker's controversial interview with Henry Winter before Christmas.

The attacker admitted that he was “ready for a new challenge” and he was subsequently exiled from the squad before joining Villa.

Rashford has impressed at Villa so far with four assists in all competitions, earning him a recall to the England national team squad for this month’s World Cup qualifiers.

And former Man Utd chief scout Mick Brown, who has inside information at the club, says that Rashford’s price has now increased.

Rashford asking price increased

“Man United are going to demand a high fee for him,” he told Football Insider.

“Their asking price has increased after he was recalled into the England squad.

“I said when he went to Villa that the move would be a win-win-win situation for the three of them, and I think that has been proven already.

“Villa have benefited from his impressive performances, he’s been allowed to show what he can do, and now Man United can benefit from his sale.

“They’ve got the best out of a bad situation at United, really.

“It looked like they’d have to sell him on the cheap, but his value has only gone up.

“With the interest from Villa and from abroad, and a place in the England squad showing how highly-rated he is, it will allow them to drive up his asking price.

“I think it’s likely he will leave Man United in the summer, but they want to make the most money possible from that sale.”
