Barcelona will attempt to retain Marcus Rashford and Joao Cancelo this summer. Both players are currently on loan and want to continue after the season ends, with mutual interest reported. Rashford’s future depends on Barcelona’s financial situation, requiring a pay cut. One path involves Barcelona paying his €10 million buy option in installments over three years and potentially offering a five-year deal to spread amortization. Another path involves a further loan, though Manchester United prefer a sale. Barcelona must also agree terms with Al-Hilal for Cancelo, who has one year remaining on his contract and has expressed criticism of his parent club while showing affection for Barcelona.
"Barcelona will reportedly "do everything possible" to keep hold of Marcus Rashford and Joao Cancelo this summer, with manager Hansi Flick "delighted" with both players. The two players are only on loan at Barcelona but are eager to continue past the end of the season. According to Mundo Deportivo, the feeling is mutual."
"Rashford's future is tricky due to the club's financial situation. The Englishman will have to take a pay cut and MD report there are two ways he could continue. The first is for Barca to pay his buy option in €10 million installments over three years and potentially hand him a five year deal to spread the amortization. The second option is another loan, although Manchester United aren't keen and want a sale."
"Barca will also need to find an agreement with Al-Hilal for Joao Cancelo. The defender still has a year left to run on his contract with the Saudi Pro League side but has been critical of his parent club and has never been shy in speaking of his affection for Barca."
