Former Manchester United defender Paul Parker has weighed in on Marcus Rashford’s loan move to Aston Villa, suggesting that new manager Ruben Amorim won’t have any regrets about letting the forward leave Old Trafford.

Speaking to Metro, Parker argued that Amorim made the right call by offloading Rashford, citing his inconsistency and playing style as key reasons.

According to the former England international, Rashford was not the kind of forward Amorim needed, and keeping him in the squad could have disrupted the team’s balance.

“I don’t think Amorim will regret it at all. Rashford wouldn’t have given him what he wants,” Parker said. “He is not a natural center-forward. Even in the Ipswich game, yes, he scored, but he was invisible for most of the match.”

Parker also pointed out Rashford’s struggles with physicality, claiming that the forward dislikes having defenders behind him because he doesn’t enjoy the physical battle.

He further suggested that Rashford’s attitude in recent months might have been a distraction for the team, something Amorim didn’t need in his first season at the club.

Manchester United has unveiled ambitious plans for a new £2 billion stadium, aiming to set a new benchmark in football infrastructure. The proposed 100,000-seat venue is designed by renowned architect Lord Norman Foster, known for iconic projects like London’s Wembley Stadium.

The stadium’s design features a vast umbrella-like structure that harvests energy and rainwater, symbolizing Manchester’s industrial heritage.

The exterior will be adorned with tensile fabric and triple masts inspired by the club’s logo, reflecting the city’s weather and urban spirit. The development includes a public plaza twice the size of Trafalgar Square, aiming to create a vibrant community space.

Planned adjacent to the current Old Trafford site, the new stadium aims to ensure continuity for fans and minimize disruption during construction.

However, the project faces logistical challenges, including the potential relocation of a rail terminal. Securing necessary approvals and integrating the stadium into the existing urban fabric will require careful planning.

Funding the £2 billion project presents significant challenges. Manchester United’s current debt levels raise questions about financing the stadium without compromising financial stability. Government support may be crucial to realize this vision, but the financial implications are complex and require thorough assessment.
