According to a report by TEAMtalk, Marcus Rashford is the subject of interest from Barcelona. The defending La Liga champions are keen on reinforcing their offensive unit in the summer transfer window by signing a versatile wide attacker. So, the Manchester United misfit has emerged as a target for the Blaugrana.
The Englishman is keen on joining Barcelona, and he views the Catalan outfit as his dream club. However, Rashford may not secure the switch in the summer transfer window, with Nico Williams closing in on joining the Blaugrana in the coming weeks.
Marcus Rashford has reached another crossroads in his career despite a successful loan stint with Aston Villa in the second half of the 2024/25 season. The 27-year-old chipped in with four goals and six assists in 17 appearances across all competitions for the West Midlands club. However, the Manchester United misfit has yet to find his next destination.
The English international is reportedly keen on joining Barcelona in the summer transfer window, and he views the Catalan club as his dream destination. While the reigning La Liga champions have been keen on signing Rashford from Manchester United, a deal may not see the light of day in the summer transfer window.
Barcelona’s interest in Marcus Rashford is understandable. Ansu Fati faces an uncertain future at the Catalan club after struggling to win over Hansi Flick in the 2024/25 season. So, the Blaugrana must sign a long-term replacement for the Spanish international as they prepare to cash in on him in the summer transfer window.
While Rashford emerged as a top target for Barcelona, Manchester United’s resolve not to lower the asking price to sell the 27-year-old Englishman posed a problem, particularly due to the player’s £325,000-a-week wages. So, Nico Williams has emerged as the top alternative to the Manchester United misfit.
Recent reports have claimed that the 22-year-old UEFA Euro 2024 winner is closing in on joining Barcelona in the summer transfer window. So, Rashford may not secure a dream move to Barcelona, and he must identify an alternate destination, as he has no way back at Manchester United.
