Barcelona have set their sights on Manchester United star Marcus Rashford, as the Catalan giants look to bolster their attacking options. The England international, who has struggled for form this season, could be a surprising target for the La Liga side.
According to reports, Manchester United may be forced to sell players to avoid breaching Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules. Rashford, who signed a new long-term contract last summer, could generate significant funds if sold.
Why Barcelona Want Rashford
Barcelona are keen to add pace and versatility to their forward line, and Rashford fits the profile. Despite his recent dip in form, the 26-year-old remains one of the Premier League's most dynamic attackers when at his best.
Manchester United's Financial Pressure
United's financial situation is under scrutiny, with the club needing to balance the books. Selling a high-profile player like Rashford could help them reinvest in other areas of the squad.
However, losing a homegrown talent would be a tough pill to swallow for the Old Trafford faithful, especially given Rashford's emotional connection to the club.
What’s Next?
While Barcelona's interest is genuine, any deal would depend on United's willingness to negotiate and Rashford's desire for a new challenge. With the summer transfer window approaching, this saga could develop quickly.
