La Liga giants Barcelona have on Saturday tied up a deal for the club’s next high-profile signing.
This comes amid confirmation that a deal is now in place for Manchester United star Marcus Rashford to seal a dream move to the Camp Nou.
The name of frontman Rashford has of course dominated the headlines in Catalunya’s capital for several weeks now.
This comes after Barcelona’s failed pursuit of Nico Williams, coupled with Liverpool’s tough stance on Luis Díaz’s sale, guided Deco and co. in the direction of the out-of-favour Man United man.
Earlier today, the Blaugrana, in turn, moved ahead with a proposal for Rashford’s signature.
And as alluded to above, just hours on, the Spanish champions appear to have landed their man.
As per a report from transfer insider Fabrizio Romano:
‘Marcus Rashford to Barcelona, here we go! Verbal agreement in principle between all parties involved with Barça planning for medical tests next days. Loan deal with buy option, details being finalised today then Man Utd will authorize his travel to Spain.’
