Barcelona are interested in signing Manchester United attacker Marcus Rashford during the summer transfer window.
According to a report from French publication Foot Mercato, Barcelona will explore a loan-to-buy deal for Marcus Rashford. Meanwhile, as reported by Mundo Deportivo via Sport Witness, the Blaugrana are hoping to take advantage of the situation and sign the Manchester United outcast for a reasonable fee.
The Englishman is unwanted at Manchester United, and he is keen on an exit as well. It remains to be seen whether Barcelona can sign him for a bargain fee. There is no doubt he is a quality player who could be an asset for Barcelona in the upcoming campaign. Rashford is capable of slotting into multiple attacking roles and will look to get his career back on track with regular football at the Spanish club.
Barcelona could use Rashford
Barcelona recently won the 2024/25 La Liga title, and they will be eager to fight for it next season as well. The Catalan giants need to keep improving their squad to perform better next season. Marcus Rashford is a versatile attacker who can play in multiple attacking roles.
Signing the English internaitonal could prove to be a wise decision. He has proven himself at Manchester United in the past. Although the MAnchester United outcast is currently lacking form and confidence, he is a quality player who could be an asset for Barcelona if he manages to regain his best form.
The Englishman managed to impress at Aston Villa during the second half of of the 2024/25 season while on loan at the West Midlands club, where he was an important player. The Villans were expected to sign him permanently this summer, but the player is keen on moving to Spain instead.
It remains to be seen whether Barcelona can convince Manchester United to accept their loan-to-buy proposal if and when it is presented. Manchester United will look to offload the player quickly and bring in a quality replacement. The Red Devils are lacking in depth and quality in the attacking unit, and signing a quality striker will be a priority for them.
