From Saudi Arabia they point to Rahsford with millionaire offers. However, the player would not be willing to change his idea of playing for Barça. Will he be able to fulfill his wish?

Marcus Rashford's desire to become the left winger of FC Barcelona continues to prevail despite the different teams that want to change his mind.

In the last hours it transpired that offers arrived to the player from Saudi Arabia; all would have received a 'NO' as an answer. To this is added the growing interest of Juventus in the player.

In this sense, according to the most recent market rumors, the proposals of Saudi football would represent stratospheric salaries to try to convince him, but before this the player would have remained immutable.

Also, sources close to Rashford emphasize that the English striker is excited about the possibility of joining the new project of Barça, led by Hansi Flick. A special motivation for the Englishman would be to share a dressing room with Lamine Yamal, for whom he has expressed enormous admiration.

Rashford prioritizes Barça despite Arabia: Keys to the possible signing

Although Marcus would like to define his future quickly, he would also be willing to wait for Barça as long as necessary for them to start making moves for him.

In this sense, there is talk that the player does not want to know anything about Manchester United and would concentrate all his efforts on reaching Barça. Rashford has already been removed from the '10' shirt in the 'reds devils' to give it to the newly arrived Matheus Cunha, in addition to the fact that coach Rúben Amorim does not count on him.

All this would have worn out his relationship with the Old Trafford team and he is only waiting for Barça, as it would be the only destination that seduces him to leave England.

Although the British newspaper 'Daily Mirror' reported that a meeting would take place between United and the player's environment to reach an agreement on the figure that could allow him to leave, his inner circle would have denied this information.

Barça works with time in favor and the desire of Marcus Rashford

In this argumentative order, it is no secret that Barcelona, in addition to Rashford, for now, also has the front open for Luis Díaz. However, an operation for the Colombian would be much more complicated, since Liverpool would demand about 82 million euros for the coffee grower.

Thus, trying to sign the English '10' would be more feasible, because Manchester would only ask between 40 and 48 'kilos' for the left winger. Despite this, the blaugrana team would be in the mood to incorporate Rashford through a loan, something that apparently United would be open to.

However, the biggest drawback would be the salary, which is around 18 to 20 M€ gross per year, but the striker would be willing to reduce his salary in order to land at Camp Barça.

Thus, Barcelona, in addition to having the desire of Marcus Rashford in its favor, also has the plus of time, since the summer transfer market for Spain closes on August 30.
