Barcelona gave Marcus Rashford a new life and now they have to deal with Manchester United

  • Reports say the forward has told Barcelona he does not plan to return to Manchester United and wants to stay, with a final decision delayed until nearer the summer transfer window.
  • Having rediscovered his form and enjoyment at Barcelona, Marcus Rashford bought an exclusive Barcelona apartment and wants his future settled before the England national team heads to the 2026 World Cup.
  • The loan deal includes an option around £30m, with reports saying a £26m clause may be activated, and Rashford earns £325,000 per week, covered by Barcelona.
  • A permanent sale would likely be United's first summer transfer and free up space for other deals, impacting the club's budget ahead of the 2026/27 season, according to reports.
  • Should Barcelona decline, Marcus Rashford will explore other options rather than return to Manchester United, amid managerial upheaval after Ruben Amorim's sacking and Michael Carrick's caretaker role.
