"Barcelona are gearing up for a busy 2026, where one of the club's priorities will be to secure the future of Marcus Rashford. The Englishman joined the club on loan from Old Trafford last summer and has impressed so far, racking up six goals and nine assists. Although the Englishman has been lacking in a few places, he has shown signs of improvement in those pockets."
"A major positive for Barcelona is that Manchester United are clearly not interested in bringing back their star striker. According to local press reports in Manchester, as cited by Diario SPORT, Man United head coach Ruben Amorim is not keen on retaining the services of Rashford. This clears the way for Barcelona to not only sign the Englishman on a permanent deal next summer, but also potentially lower the buyout clause."
"Keeping that in mind, it won't be surprising to see Deco push for a lower buyout clause for the English international next summer. Amorim, for his part, does not want him as part of his plans next season, although a change of manager at Man United could significantly change things. Given United's improved form, though, Amorim may have borrowed a bit more time for himself, which is a net positive for Barcelona, as far as Rashford's future is concerned."
Barcelona intend to prioritize securing Marcus Rashford's future for 2026 after his loan spell from Manchester United. Rashford has registered six goals and nine assists while showing improvement in weaker areas. The club holds a buyout clause reported at roughly €30–35 million, with no final decision yet but strong indications toward keeping the player. Manchester United appear uninterested in recalling Rashford, with head coach Ruben Amorim reportedly not keen to retain him. That stance could enable Barcelona to complete a permanent transfer and potentially negotiate a reduced buyout, with Deco expected to push for a lower fee.
