Barca Eyeing Rashford Extension: A Catalan Dream?

Barcelona aims to secure Marcus Rashford permanently following his successful loan spell from Manchester United. The 28-year-old attacker has contributed significantly with seven goals and 11 assists in 26 appearances for the league leaders. Reports indicate Barcelona's sporting director, Deco, has met with Rashford's agent to discuss a potential deal.

Rashford's departure from Manchester United stemmed from unmet club expectations and a falling out with former manager Ruben Amorim, who has since been dismissed. Amorim had stated he couldn't align Rashford with his tactical vision, leading to the player being sidelined with other high earners.

The English winger has expressed his desire to stay and win trophies with Barcelona, citing the club's winning culture and demanding environment as ideal for his career progression. He feels welcomed and focused on helping the team achieve success.
