English winger willing to extend contract for five years with same salary in order to stay at Barcelona

Rashford’s proposal to make it work According to Mundo Deportivo , Rashford has come up with a creative solution to bridge the gap between what Barcelona can afford and what Manchester United are demanding. The Englishman is willing to extend his contract from three years to five seasons, running until 2032, at the same reduced salary he had already agreed to. Rashford is keen on Barcelona stay.

This would make the deal more financially viable under the club’s fair play restrictions. Rashford has already agreed to take a 40% salary cut as part of his commitment to staying at Camp Nou.

He has not yet been formally informed of the club’s position, but his stance is clear – he wants to stay and is willing to make further concessions to make it happen. The obstacles ahead Barcelona are facing economic difficulties in keeping Rashford. (Photo by George Wood/Getty Images) Manchester United, however, are not making things easy.

The club are unwilling to consider another loan and are insisting the €30 million buy option, which expires in June, must be paid in full. They are also frustrated by Rashford’s public declarations about wanting to remain in Barcelona, with manager Michael Carrick having already stated the player is part of his plans. Aston Villa have also entered the picture , with Unai Emery’s side willing to bid for the winger.
