Marcus Rashford was one of the players FC Barcelona brought into their team in the last summer transfer window to reinforce their attack, and the Englishman has proven to be quite a fit for the Catalan team.
The 28-year-old forward did not need a lot of time to adapt to the Blaugrana side, and provided an immediate impact, contributing with both goals and assists in the 2025-26 season so far.
In fact, his performances have been so satisfactory for Barcelona that they are reported to be happy to keep him in their team beyond next summer.
In this regard, SPORT notes that the Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano confirmed, while talking to DAZN, that the Catalan club has already made the decision to keep Rashford, and their decision has also been communicated to both the player and his brother, who also acts as his agent.
"La decisión del Barça es quedarse a Rashford. Es un tema financiero. Son 30 millones…" 👀

The journalist went on to claim that both the forward and the Blaugrana club are satisfied with their partnership. However, to permanently sign him, Barcelona will have to pay his €30 million, which could prove to be problematic for them in their current financial climate.
Marcus Rashford is fully committed to Barcelona, as evident from his giving up quite a significant amount of his salary to join the Blaugrana side last summer. Meanwhile, the conditions at Manchester United would also impact how this story concludes.
