Rashford Offers Himself to Barcelona, Determined to Play Under Flick
Barcelona is looking to make a strong push in the upcoming transfer window while being mindful of its financial limitations. New coach Hansi Flick, fresh off securing a domestic treble, is aiming to bolster the squad in pursuit of the elusive Champions League title.
Amidst this, English forward Marcus Rashford has shown a strong interest in joining Barcelona, reportedly willing to lower his salary significantly to make the move happen. Currently on loan at Aston Villa from Manchester United, Rashford is targeting a permanent switch to the Spanish giants.
Rashford prefers a loan deal with an option to buy, but Manchester United is leaning toward a direct sale, valuing the player at approximately €40 million—a fee Aston Villa might be ready to pay, according to Sport, a Catalan newspaper.
As it stands, there is still a gap between Rashford’s aspirations and United’s plans, and the final outcome is expected to unfold in the coming weeks.
