Barcelona have officially submitted a bid to Manchester United this morning for English forward Marcus Rashford, sources confirm.
š¹ Internal Shift in Transfer Strategy:
The move comes after internal discussions held within the last 24 hours at BarƧa, where the club decided to move away from pursuing Liverpoolās Luis DĆaz due to financial constraints. The Colombian winger was deemed too expensive in the current market.
š¹ Flickās Approval Seals the Move:
New BarƧa manager Hansi Flick is said to have approved the clubās pivot toward Rashford, seeing the 26-year-old as a better long-term fit in his tactical plans.
š¹ Deal in Advanced Stages:
Negotiations between both clubs are reportedly well underway. While no fee has been disclosed publicly, insiders say Barcelona are optimistic about reaching an agreement, especially as Rashford is open to a new challenge after a difficult season at Old Trafford.
If completed, this would be one of the summer’s most high-profile transfers ā reuniting Rashford with former teammate Frenkie de Jong and bringing fresh firepower to BarƧaās frontline.
