Marcus Rashford is set to become a Barcelona player next season, according to Spanish sports outlet Marca. The report reveals that Barcelona has already reached an agreement with both Marcus Rashford and Manchester United.
Only final paperwork and a few minor details remain to be sorted out. Rashford will join Barcelona on loan, and the deal includes a buy option between €30 to €35 million, though the exact figure is yet to be finalized.
The English forward is expected to arrive in Barcelona in the coming days, where he will undergo a medical check-up before joining the squad for their Asian pre-season tour.
Barcelona reportedly turned to Marcus Rashford after their efforts to sign Liverpool’s Luis DĂaz fell through. Liverpool was unwilling to sell, prompting the Catalan club to look elsewhere.
Meanwhile, new head coach Hansi Flick is keen to have his squad ready for the upcoming pre-season trip. Barcelona’s tour kicks off this Thursday with visits to Japan and South Korea.
Although Barcelona has not made an official comment, Marcus Rashford’s potential arrival has already stirred excitement among fans.
