Rashford could play a massive part in whether United manage to sign Eze this summer. If Aston Villa are unable to keep loanee Rashford, they will challenge the Red Devils for the signing of Eze. As such, it has been suggested that United could make a swap deal with the Villans involving Rashford plus cash for Ollie Watkins. This deal would help open the gap to sign Eze with less competition for his signature.
