At Aston Villa, Marcus Rashford has rediscovering his passion for football, and manager Unai Emery is adamant that he has more to offer.

After being essentially banished by Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim, Rashford joined Villa on loan last winter and is gradually readjusting to life at Villa.

The 27-year-old, who has three goals and four assists across all competitions, is anticipated to start for Villa against Paris Saint-Germain in the French capital on Wednesday in the Champions League.

Emery described him as a good man who is modest, a very good professional, and very content with his teammates. We want to work with him and the team on everything, but he is being demanding on himself.

The most crucial factor is that he is playing freely and comfortably. Prioritizing him as a person before focusing on him as a footballer is our goal.

Playing two distinct positions is helping him improve his process here. He was a left-winger when he first joined us, but he is now playing more as a striker. It concerns how he can make the most of his strengths.

Although there is still work to be done, his feelings are what matter most. His smile is the finest news we could ever hope for.

“Now it’s just about watching him play, but I can see that he is happy and dedicated to everything we are doing.”
