The Marcus Rashford soap opera kept football observers for long weeks. Having become undesirable in Manchester United, the English striker joined the ranks of Aston Villa this winter as part of a loan with option to buy at 48 million euros.

Before his departure for the Birmingham club, Wythenshawe's child had however been envisaged as a serious track by FC Barcelona.
This was confirmed by Deco, the sports director of the Catalan club, in an interview with SPORT.

According to The SunRashford retains the hope of one day putting the Blaugrana jersey. The British media claims that the player firmly believes that a new opportunity to rally Catalonia will present himself to him if he manages to regain his best level. An additional motivation for the left winger in his quest for success with the Villans.

For the time being, the former Red Devil has already played two games with his new team: 25 minutes during the victory against Tottenham (2-1) in FA Cup (Cup of England) and 45 minutes against Ipswich (1 -1) in the Premier League. It should be there on Wednesday, for the shock against Liverpool in the league.
