Barcelona maintain stance on Marcus Rashford signing

The brass at La Liga giants Barcelona remain adamant that they will not make a decision on the future of Marcus Rashford with the club until the end of the season.

That’s according to Mundo Deportivo, who have on Friday provided an insight into the situation.

Frontman Rashford of course made the move to Catalunya’s capital over the summer, as part of a year-long loan from Manchester United.

And the 28-year-old has spent the months since rediscovering some of his very best form.

Taking full advantage of the personnel problems in Hansi Flick’s attacking ranks, Rashford has racked up a head-turning 15 goal contributions in all competitions to date.

With such production comes inevitable chatter surrounding the Englishman’s place in Barcelona’s long-term plans, as calls mount for Rashford’s arrival to be made a permanent one.

As alluded to above, however, for the time being, the Blaugrana hierarchy are in no rush to commit to as much.

As per a report from MD:

‘The option to buy Rashford, set at €30 million, is on the table, but it will ultimately depend on the Englishman’s performance evaluation at the end of the season.’
