Rashford continues to demonstrate his desire to wear the Barça jersey, but he is far from being the first option for the left wing. Despite this, Barça is looking at other names

The Manchester United player, Marcus Rashford, continues to make it easy to reach FC Barcelona in the summer transfer market. Actively, the 27-year-old winger continues to do everything in his power to ensure that the Catalan team bets on him.

The Manchester native gives absolute priority to Barça, while he is aware that he has no place in the 'Red Devils' due to his disagreements with the Portuguese coach, Rúben Amorim.

According to the latest information, one of the English attacker's desires is to play in LaLiga, but not in just any team, but as a Barça player, for which he is willing to wait as long as necessary to see if the Blaugrana decide to incorporate him.

Similarly, the player knows that the sports management of Barcelona (for now) is focused on other objectives for the position of left winger (such as Nico Williams) with the intention of facing the 2025/26 season in search of all possible titles.

What does Rashford offer for Barça to bet on him?

In principle, the '10' was already linked with FC Barcelona last winter market, but in anticipation of a move by the Culés due to lack of salary space, Aston Villa ended up taking him on loan until the end of the season.

Already at that time, Marcus Rashford showed a willingness to reach the Catalan team. Now, according to the latest information, the attacker, in his desire to wear the Blaugrana shirt, would be willing to adjust his salary, since he earns 18 million euros at United.

In terms of sports, the striker can play both as a left winger and a right winger, and also as a '9', something that Barça values due to the age of Robert Lewandowski (36 years old), although they also have Ferran Torres for this demarcation.

Barcelona is aware of the market opportunity represented by a player with Rashford's background, but does not see a possible incorporation clearly, since the Old Trafford team demands €40M for the transfer of the player.

Another option would be for him to arrive on loan, as long as he adapts his claims to the economic situation facing the team from the Ciudad Condal.

Luis Díaz and Nico Williams start with an advantage in the sports management

Despite the constant offers from Marcus Rashford, the 'Man U' '10' starts with a disadvantage, because other names such as Nico Williams (Athletic Club) or Luis Díaz (Liverpool) are the favorites of the sports director, Deco. In such a case, the Englishman would be the third option for the Culé team.

Similarly, in recent days Barça and Nico Williams have approached positions, and there is even talk of a pre-agreement between the '11' of 'La Roja' and the Blaugrana entity.

Thus, both the 'Guajiro' and Rashford will have to wait for new contacts from Barcelona, since so far, the best positioned in the race to reach Barça would be Williams.
