Barcelona’s new front-4 already has a nickname

The newly-established attacking quartet at La Liga giants Barcelona has been christened with a nickname on the part of the club’s fans.

Barcelona, of course, are fresh off tying up a deal for a new addition to Hansi Flick’s frontline.

Following a lightning round of negotiations with Manchester United, Deco and co. have secured the signing of Marcus Rashford.

Frontman Rashford is set to arrive on loan for the season ahead, with an official announcement expected imminently.

The Englishman will of course add to what is a talent-packed crop of attackers in Catalunya’s capital at present.

En route to a domestic treble this past season, the trio of Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski were in nothing short of spectacular form.

And with Rashford now in the mix, a nickname has been unveiled for the Blaugrana’s explosive quartet.

Owing to the trend of ‘R’ in the players’ names – Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha, ‘Ryan’ Yamal (a popular nickname for Lamine) and Rashford, the four have been crowned:

‘The Plan R’
