Dane, the older brother of Rashford, was all smiles as he joined Rashford’s new fans ahead of Villa’s Champions League tie against Club Brugges in the Champions League last 16.
Former Aston Villa star Ian Taylor, 56, was there to greet Dane.
The ex-midfielder, who played for Villa for nine years between 1994 and 2003, was also seen standing on a table leading the chants.
Rashford was named in the starting XI for the clash by Unai Emery.
The 27-year-old is yet to open his goalscoring account for Villa, but has already racked up three assists in wearing the club’s claret and blue.
He climbed off the bench against Chelsea in the Premier League to set up Marco Asensio twice to seal a 2-1 comeback win.
Last weekend he then provided another assist for Asensio’s opener against Cardiff as Villa secured a 2-0 win to move into the FA Cup quarter-finals – where they drew Championship side Preston.
Rashford’s more creative side really came to the fore in his last game, creating six chances for team-mates, equalling his highest tally in 426 matches for his boyhood club.

After falling out of favour at Man Utd under Ruben Amorim, Rashford was sent on loan to Villa.
The deal features a £40million option for the Villa Park outfit to make the deal permanent at the end of the season, while Villa are currently paying 75 per cent of his wages.
As well as Dane, Rashford also has a brother named Dwaine Maynard, two sisters, and one half-sister.
Dane is a director of DN May Sports Management – a sports management agency ”with the goal of elevating athletes to achieve their full potential and thrive in their sports and in their wider life” – alongside Dwaine.
