Barcelona are close to reaching a ‘financial agreement’ that could impact their pursuit of Manchester United star Marcus Rashford.
Rashford’s future at United has been the subject of intense speculation in recent months. The 27-year-old has not featured in any of United’s last nine matches but was spotted in training on Wednesday in the build-up to the Europa League clash against Rangers.
It was in Europe when Rashford last made an appearance for United, which came against Viktoria Plzen on December 12. Reports in recent weeks have claimed that several clubs, including Barcelona, may be interested in signing Rashford on loan before the January transfer window closes.
Rashford has been taking part in extra training sessions as he aims to return to Ruben Amorim’s starting line-up. The update came after Rashford gave an interview where he outlined a desire for a ‘new challenge’ back in December.
Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on Rashford’s links to Barcelona, with a deal on the verge of completion that could affect the United star’s future. The La Liga club are on the verge of announcing a contract extension for Ronald Araujo.
