Marcus Rashford is not in the serious plans of Ralf Rangnick, and he could leave Manchester United soon, and Barcelona is very interested in him.
This information is transmitted by the Catalan El Nacional.
This season, the 24-year-old offshoot of the United Academy played only 565 minutes divided into 11 appearances, in which he scored three goals and one assist, which is far from the expected performance of a striker of his reputation.
Rashford has been slowed down this season by injuries, but also by a depression from which he has not yet recovered after a missed penalty in the EURO final against Italy, writes El Nacional.
In addition, Rangnick is trying to get the most out of Jadon Sancho, he does not want to hinder the development of the young Mason Greenwood, and Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes are untouchable. That leaves little room for Marcus.
That is why they are ready to listen to any interesting offer at Old Trafford, just like the striker himself, who wants an attractive project in which he will play the lead role.
This is exactly what Barcelona offers him, for whom Rashford would be a huge reinforcement, both because of the quality and because of the great experience for his age.
Barcelona had shown interest in him before, but he was much more important in United’s plans at the time, so the English flatly rejected all offers.
Now the Catalans have a much more realistic chance, but El Nacional estimates that United could ask for 70 million euros, which is a price that Barcelona cannot pay just because of its huge debts.
