Overview
- Rashford is on loan from Manchester United with a €30 million option to buy, and Barcelona are exploring a lower fee after Deco met his representatives in Saudi Arabia.
- Hansi Flick praised Rashford’s quality but said players must “give your all” and “defend the colors,” framing the next months as decisive for his future.
- Rashford’s minutes have dipped with Raphinha in form, featuring for just 32 minutes across the SuperCopa, a reality Gary Lineker says could limit his league starts.
- He has produced seven goals and 11 assists in 28 games but has only one goal since early November, drawing criticism in Spanish media over off-ball work and impact.
- Current selection dynamics place Lamine Yamal and Raphinha as first-choice wingers, leaving Rashford as a rotational option or competing centrally with Robert Lewandowski and Ferran Torres.
