Flick Urges Barcelona to Keep Rashford as Buy-Option Talks Heat Up

Flick’s push to keep Rashford meets tight finances at Barcelona.

Overview

  • Barcelona coach Hansi Flick wants Marcus Rashford retained beyond his loan and has publicly praised the forward’s attitude, work ethic and versatility.
  • Rashford’s revival includes seven goals and 11 assists across competitions, strengthening his case to stay after becoming a regular contributor under Flick.
  • Barcelona hold a non‑obligatory purchase option reported between €30m and €40m, with La Liga salary‑cap limits making a permanent move challenging as the club explores possible routes.
  • Manchester United are reported to seek roughly €40m for the 28‑year‑old, who remains under contract at Old Trafford until 2028.
  • PSG are said to be tracking Rashford, with MD reporting potential willingness to bid up to €50m, while scenarios discussed include a reduced fee, a renewed loan or reworked wages.
