Marcus Rashford has completed a loan move from Manchester United to Aston Villa.
The 27-year-old forward has joined Villa on a deal until the end of the 2024/25 season, with an option to make the transfer permanent for £40million.
Rashford was frozen out by Ruben Amorim at United with his attitude questioned and was told he would not play for the club if he stayed.
Villa have agreed to pay at least 75 per cent of his £350,000-a-week wages, but that could rise to 90 per cent with performance related bonuses.
Unai Emery's side could then make the loan permanent in the summer if they cough up £40m.
Writing on Instagram, Rashford said: "I would like to thank Manchester United and Aston Villa for making this loan deal happen.

"I was lucky to have a few clubs approach me but Aston Villa was an easy decision - I really admire the way that Aston Villa have been playing this season, and the manager's ambitions. I just want to play football and am excited to get started.
"I wish everyone at Manchester United all the best for the rest of the season."
Villa are also set to sign Spain midfielder Marco Asensio on loan from Paris Saint-Germain until the end of the season ahead of Monday's transfer deadline.
The Midlands club have already signed Spanish full-back Andres Garcia from Levante and Netherlands attacker Donyell Malen from Borussia Dortmund this month.

Rashford attracted interest from all over Europe in the January window after his struggles in Manchester this campaign.
AC Milan, Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund were said to be interested, but Rashford's wages presented a key stumbling block.
Rashford's last appearance for the Red Devils was a Europa League fixture against Viktoria Plzen on December 12.
The 60-cap England international has been outcast out by Red Devils boss Amorim following his admission in December he was 'ready for a new challenge.'
Amorim has been especially critical of what he believed to be a lack of effort from Rashford on the training ground.
The United boss even claimed he would rather have Jorge Vital, his 63-year-old goalkeeper coach, on the bench over Rashford, who he said 'doesn't give the maximum every day'.
"Imagine a talent like Rashford, our team should be so much better with him - but he has to change," Amorim said.
"If he changes, we are more than welcome [to include him] – and we need it. But in this moment we have to set some standards. We are waiting for Rashford, if he wants it really bad.
"You [the media] want to make it personal, I have nothing against Marcus, but I have to make the same rules for everybody.
"We need goals, we need [players who can go] one against one, we need threat in the final third."
As Rashford was not part of the squad for Man United's third round FA Cup win over Arsenal, he could feature in Villa's fourth round tie against Tottenham next Sunday - live on 90mins.
Rashford has been associated with Man United for 20 years having been scouted by them aged seven.
After graduating from their academy he made his debut for the first-team in February 2016, scoring twice in a 5-1 victory over FC Midtjylland.
