It’s a file that is clearly starting to annoy more than one in Catalonia… And for good reason, Marcus Rashford will no longer be a FC Barcelona player on June 30, and information about him abounds daily in the Catalan press.

But in recent weeks, the trend has been rather negative, with Barça not entirely convinced, also believing that the purchase price of the player would be very high…
Management has even started to look for alternatives on the market, with former club members Abde (Betis) or Jan Virgili (Mallorca) as potential reinforcements cheaper than the Three Lions player. For his part, Marcus Rashford would do anything to stay, even if it means making big sacrifices. And now the Cadena SER made new revelations.
Flick positions himself
We learn that Hansi Flick wants Marcus Rashford to stay. He was rather convinced by the player’s performances – 13 goals and 10 assists between La Liga and the Champions League – whom he considers to be very useful in the squad. According to Spanish radio, he even privately confided to the striker that he would like to have him under his command next season. On the other hand, he also let him know that it would not depend only on him…
But it is still an important position, particularly because Deco and Joan Laporta tend to listen to their trainer, with whom they work hand in hand and whose opinion is very important internally. A superb ally for Marcus Rashford therefore. The ball is therefore in Barça’s court, who could try to lower the amount of the purchase option, or even negotiate a new loan…
