Marcus Rashford: Barcelona make intriguing offer to Man United for winger Whether Marcus Rashford will return to Manchester United in the summer remains a mystery. The Red Devils would love Barcelona to activate the £26 million option to buy that the two clubs agreed upon when they struck a season-long loan deal last summer. However, the Spanish champions’ tricky financial situation has led them to argue that they are unable to honour those terms.

They would love a discount if they were to sign the winger on a permanent deal, but Ineos are not entertaining such talk; they want the Catalan giants to simply honour the terms agreed. It is this tricky situation that leaves Rashford ‘s future uncertain, whether he stays at Camp Nou or returns to Old Trafford. A solution needs to be found, and fast.

Solution to the tricky Rashford situation on the table Interestingly, a report by The Mirror now claims another deal could be struck, one that could suit every party. The UK outlet reports: “Barcelona want to extend Marcus Rashford’s loan deal from Manchester United into a second season. And Rashford would prefer to remain with the Spanish giants than return to Old Trafford in the summer.

“It’s understood Barca have put the proposal to United, who are considering whether or not to agree to a second loan deal. ” While Ineos might reject this proposal outright, one thing may yet force them to entertain it. Barca have the upper hand Rashford clearly wants Barcelona, and they know it.
