Overview

  • Multiple outlets over the weekend reported Barcelona are thrilled with Marcus Rashford's impact and are inclined to keep him beyond this season.
  • The official stance remains cautious, with sporting director Deco confirming an option exists but stressing it is too early to commit to next season.
  • Figures for the clause differ across reports, variously cited as £25m plus £5m add‑ons, £26m, or €30–35m, with some coverage suggesting Manchester United could be flexible on fixed versus variable amounts.
  • Rashford has started strongly on loan, including a Champions League brace at Newcastle and a recent LaLiga goal, and he currently leads Barcelona in total goal involvements, per BBC analysis.
  • The 27‑year‑old says he wants to stay in Catalonia, he is under contract with Manchester United until 2028, and other clubs such as PSG have been linked while any permanent move may require wage adjustments to fit Barcelona's structure.
