Marcus Rashford's future has still not been completely decided but moves to three clubs have been ruled out, reports claim.
After finding himself surplus to requirements at boyhood club Manchester United after being continually dropped by Ruben Amorim, Rashford joined Aston Villa on loan and has found his form again.
Taking the No.9 shirt vacated by Jhon Duran, Rashford has been given a new lease of life under Unai Emery and firmly displaced Ollie Watkins as the first-choice striker.
Thomas Tuchel recalled him to the England squad as a result of his performances and there is particular interest in what will happen to Rashford at club level in the summer.
He is still a United player and contracted until 2028, though it has been reported that Villa are very much interested in taking up their option to purchase him permanently, with £40 million the figure floating around.
However, an update from Miguel Delaney from The Independent has provided new details into Rashford's thinking going into the summer transfer window.
According to the report, Rashford will not make a decision on his future until the summer rolls around, with talks involving his team not set to take place until June at the earliest as he does not want any distractions.
Marcus Rashford has ruled out three moves to three Premier League clubs
He will make a point of ensuring his final call sees him pick the option which is "right for him" but it's understood he has no interest in moving to London, which would effectively rule out Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs.

However, Sky Sports say Rashford has not ruled out returning to Old Trafford in the summer as an option.
United have been linked with Ollie Watkins but the consensus is that a swap deal would be tricky to arrange.
Though rumours have stated that Wolves star Matheus Cunha is being courted by United, the reliable David Ornstein claims that Ipswich Town's Liam Delap is their top target.
Delap, who has scored 12 Premier League goals this term, will have a £30 million release which can be activated if Ipswich are relegated from the Premier League.
