Aston Villa Chief Monchi believes that Unai Emery had a quick impact on Marcus Rashford after the attacker had arrived at the Midlands Club of Manchester United earlier this year
Aston Villa President of Football Operations Monchi has praised the rapid impact that has had his side on Marcus Rashford after his loan movement from Manchester United. The Spanish transfer guru has praised the ability of head coach Unai Emery to get the best out of players and believes that Villa Park has turned out to be the perfect land for Rashford and Marco Asensio.
The side of Midlands insured both players in temporary deals, respectively from United and Paris Saint-Germain. Both have had a positive impact on ex-Real Madrid star Asensio that proves a goal threat-with seven goals for the club already, while Rashford has offered four assists.
Villa landed Rashford in the winter transfer window, after a month of speculation about the future of the attacker after his revelation, he wanted to continue from Old Trafford. The will of Barcelona and AC Milan could not let deals work before the Premier League side offered a solution.
The Red Devils hope that the spell of Rashford can improve their ability to sell the 27-year-old in the summer. Villa has the option to permanently make its deal for £ 40 million at the end of the season, but with a large contract until 2028, there is a suspicion that Rashford may have to pay from his deal by United, a fee that could be £ 20 million in total.
Monchi said in an interview with Radio Marca that the primary sales argument of Villa for players is how much they can improve them.
“Unai is a coach who has helped players historically grow,” said Monchi. “There are players such as Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio who have improved since Unai arrived.
“Here players gets better, and that is our most important sales argument, except to offer a project fighting for the top eight in the Champions League, which wants to continue to grow, and wants to continue to play in Europe.”
In the midst of the exit of Rashford, after he had fallen out of grace at Old Trafford, United -Baas Ruben Amorim seemed to have given the best to get the best out of the Homegrown star. “I couldn't get Marcus to see how to play football and train to train as I see it,” he explained.
“Sometimes you have one player who is really good with one coach, and the same player with another coach is different. I wish the best to do rashford and on [Villa manager] Unai Emery, and they can connect because he is a very good player. “
Monchi hopes that he can use examples such as Asensio and Rashford, as a means to keep stars to Aston Villa. Real Madrid star Arda Guler is someone whose struggles are firmly aware of, in the midst of his struggles to break into the side of Carlo Ancelotti.
“I know him well because he is a player who followed every sports director during his time in Turkey,” Monchi said. “He is a player who met a series of requirements and who could be attractive to Aston Villa because we were looking for that position.
“It is not the same position as Marcos Asensio, but more or less we look for that profile between the lines that can play as a 10 and that can even play inside on the outside.
“For me he seems to be a player with very good technical circumstances, and I also think he has personality, he shows when he plays for the national team. He takes roles that are not associated with his age.
