Marcus Rashford has completed his 'Dream' relocation to Barcelona and joined the Catalan giants with a seasonal loan movement of Manchester United, who will save around £ 12 million in terms of his salary, where Barca will make the move permanent for £ 26 million next summer
Simon Jordan closed both Manchester United and Marcus Rashford after the striker of England sealed his move to Barcelona.
Rashford, 27, has joined the Blaugrana for a seasonal loan agreement – where Barca has an option to make it permanent for £ 26 million. He was unveiled on Wednesday in Camp Nou, where Rashford stated: “I feel at home here – it is where dreams come true.”
Certainly, his time at United under Ruben Amorim was far from a dream, with Rashford overboard of the first team, dumped on loan to Aston Villa in the second half of last season and then made part of the bomb team of the club 'this summer, when the Portuguese made it clear nowhere to his first team in the coming season.
Now the former owner Jordan of the Crystal Palace has focused on both the club and Rashford for how his time at United has fallen to the extent that he is taken out of the club on loan without earning any form of anterior transfer costs – they will save £ 12 million in terms of salary – in some quarters as a win.
“We must regret the loss of a significant talent,” Jordan said, speaking on Talksport, when he was asked about the Rashford switch. “I don't think he was once at the level that he was built to be, but we must regret the loss of culture of Man United for a player to lose the way.
“Do you remember that after the European championships he was not much of the season, was in the European championships … came in there. After the European championships, the club allowed him to go on holiday for two weeks and then undergo a shoulder operation. Wait a little … you get priorities well!
“I think you should put responsibility for the opportunities that the player has not been taken at his own door, but if you do not make the culture for these young men to respect and appreciate the opportunities they have, they can be distracted by external influences.”
Although Jordan made his dissatisfaction clear about how the old Trafford -Hierarchy has treated Rashford in recent years, he also says that the player must bear responsibility for how his career at United has also been unraveled.
Jordan continued: “Of course [it is Rashford’s responsibility]But we know that there are few leaders in football. There are more people who are followers.
“You lose them [followers]There are distractions and external influences. They are more derived in their social life. They make their decision for their birthdays. They make the decision not to stand up for training and to go out the whizz in Noord -Ireland – and things of that nature.
“These are things that are clearly tolerated by a culture. In addition, you then have the distraction, the wealth and the wealth football players.
“You have a culture not to be able to tell people the truth, because if you do that, they can't handle it – it's just good news that they can hear, so that they do not build resilience and leadership.”
Jordan ended: “I think he will be successful in Barcelona, because the clear thing for Marcus Rashford is to get away from Manchester United. That is for the importance of Man United and Marcus Rashford – and we have to regret that he is a good player.”
After his unveiling, Rashford spoke in the well -camp after his unveiling: “I am very excited. It is a club where the dreams come out of people. They win big prizes and what the clubs stand for, really means a lot to me.
“It feels like I'm at home and this is a big factor in my choice to come here, because it is a family sub, people are comfortable here and it is a good place for players to show their skills. I want to thank you for the warm welcome. It is a different environment for me, but it feels like home.
“I am full of excitement and hunger to go out and help win this club. They won so much last year and I can see that the ambition is to do it better than last year and that is what you want to hear as a player. It keeps your year on year and that is what you have to be – the best version of yourself. So the best version of yourself. So the best version of yourself. To be here, enthusiastic to get the games and I enjoy the games.
“I always try to make decisive actions – fast, dynamic plays and I always like good football, so I have always been a fan of watching Barcelona, like most football fans. It will be a pleasure for me to play here and I will enjoy every minute.”
