Barcelona are hoping to sign Marcus Rashford permanently at the end of the season.
The 28-year-old has been outstanding for them during his loan, with 23 contributions across all competitions. He has already established himself as an important player for the club, and it is no surprise that Barcelona want to make the move permanent.
They would have to pay €30 million in order to get the deal done. According to a report from Fabrizio Romano, Barcelona already have an agreement in place with the player, but they have yet to secure the deal with Manchester United. The Premier League club is determined to secure €30 million from his departure. It remains to be seen whether Barcelona is prepared to pay up. They are going through financial difficulties and will probably hope to sign the England international for a more reasonable fee.

Rashford does not have a future at Manchester United, and he will look to sort out a permanent exit quickly. Joining Barcelona will be exciting for him. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and he will be able to fight for major trophies with them. Manchester United are going through a period of rebuilding, and they are unlikely to push for the league title or the UEFA Champions League anytime soon. At Barcelona, he will be able to compete for those trophies.
Rashford could be a top signing
Also, he is a valued member of the Spanish club’s team, and he will look to hold down a regular starting spot. He is versatile enough to operate across the front three, making him a valuable asset for the Spanish outfit. They must do everything in their power to get the deal done in the summer.
The €30 million asking price is reasonable for a player of his quality, and he has already proven himself in Spanish football. He could easily justify the investment and become a key player for the club. It will be interesting to see if Barcelona can wrap up the move quickly.
