Spanish champions will pay for the £ 17 million wages of Forward during season -hose switch, which is welcome news for Ruben Amorim while he offers to renew Man United Squad
Marcus Rashford is expected to travel to Barcelona in the coming days to take a medical after the Catalan club agreed to sign the England on loan.
It is understood that in principle an agreement was reached between the two clubs – via intermediaries – on Saturday and the player it is said that he is enthusiastic about the prospect of switching his dream to the Nou -camp.
When all formalities are completed, the 27-year-old will become a Barcelona player in the coming days.
According to the conditions of the proposed deal, Barcelona has the option to buy Rashford for a certain – not yet announced – compensation at the end of the season.
It is also clear that the Spanish champions will pay all wages of Rashford during the season loan, which will be his second temporary move away from Old Trafford in the space of a year.
That will shave around £ 17 million on the wage account of United, which is welcome news for the head coach, Ruben Amorim, who is trying to renovate his team.
Rashford spent the second half of last season on loan in Aston Villa, where he scored four goals and six more helped in 17 performances. He missed the last five games of the season with a hamstring injury, but he has overcome the problem and maintained his condition during the season by using a personal trainer during a holiday in Marbella.
Hansi Flick, who won La Liga, had tried to sign Nico Williams and Luis Díaz of Athletic Bilbao and Liverpool in his first year to have managed, but was unable to close a deal for both players, so he turned to Rashford and spoke to him to Lokken in Lokken.
Rashford, who is left for three years at the age of £ 325,000 a week, left for Villa last season because he came out with Amorim, who accused the application of a lack of application and focus on and next to the field.
Villa rejected the opportunity to sign Rashford for £ 40 million and the player himself was not enthusiastic about a long -term stint in Villa Park, especially because they will not play in the Champions League next season. With Barcelona, Rashford gets the chance to play in the European top club competition.
However, finding his way to the starting XI will not be easy. Raphinha, the Brazilian, started last season in Rashford's favorite position and was one of the best players in the Flick team.
On the right side Barca Lamine Yamal, the 18-year-old sensation that Rashford recently said he would like to play. The first choice of Flick is Robert Lewandowski, who scored 42 goals in all competitions last season, although he is 36 years old.
Ferran Torres and Dani Olmo are also in the Flick team, although the latter has largely played as a NO10 among the German.
