"Barcelona fans can breathe a collective sigh of relief today after veteran journalist Guillem Balague firmly refuted reports suggesting that the club is considering sending Marcus Rashford back to Manchester United early. His comments dispel recent speculation, reaffirming the club's faith in the England international's potential to play a significant role this season. Rashford joined the La Liga champions this summer after they failed to complete the signing of Nico Williams from Athletic Club."

Often appearing from the bench, critics have questioned his impact and body language on the pitch. Rumours quickly surfaced in the Catalan media suggesting that Barcelona hierarchy were already weighing the option of terminating his loan deal prematurely."

Rashford has endured a difficult time at United and that is why he was sent away on loan to Aston Villa last season. He impressed for Unai Emery's side but since United manager Ruben Amorim had already made a decision to offload him, the attacker considered his options in the summer."
