Rashford's Agent Meets with Barcelona: Is a Transfer on the Cards?

Rashford's potential move to Barcelona is making headlines after a reported meeting between his agent and the Catalan club's sporting director. The 27-year-old forward, currently on loan at Aston Villa, is said to be available for £40 million, according to Spanish outlet Sport. This comes after a reported falling out with Manchester United manager, Ruben Amorim. While Rashford is under contract until 2028 and earns £315,000 a week, Manchester United are reportedly keen to move him on. Rashford's preference is said to be a Champions League club, and Barcelona is understood to be his preferred destination. The meeting between his agent and Deco, Barcelona's sporting director, took place at a hotel in Barcelona on Wednesday. A source close to the situation, speaking on condition of anonymity, stated, "This meeting is a significant step in the process. While nothing is finalized, it shows a serious level of interest from Barcelona."
