One key figure in this summer’s transfer puzzle is Marcus Rashford, whose future has sparked significant speculation.

As United prepare for the new season, their stars are attracting interest from top European clubs, adding extra pressure on the club’s recruitment strategy.

Amid this backdrop, Barcelona’s sporting director Deco has revealed that the Catalan giants “like” Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford.

Speaking to Catalan radio station RAC1 via Mundo Deportivo, Deco confirmed that Barcelona are monitoring Marcus Rashford and see him as a potential target.

Rashford, who sought a move to Spain in January before opting for a loan to Aston Villa, is available for around £40 million, making him a viable option for Barcelona as they look to strengthen their attack.

Deco also stressed that Barcelona’s immediate priority is securing contract renewals for key players such as Pedri, Gavi, Ronald Araujo, Raphinha, and Jules Kounde before actively pursuing new signings.

He highlighted that renewals are as critical as signings, particularly for emerging talents like Lamine Yamal.

Additionally, Deco indicated the club’s desire to add a player with a “different profile” to enhance the team’s attacking options.

Marcus Rashford it set to be axed along with Antony and Jadon Sancho and Barcelona could be his next destination.

Barcelona’s new manager Hansi Flick recently signed a contract extension following their La Liga triumph, emphasising the club’s ambition to build a competitive squad for the coming season.

For Manchester United, the interest in Rashford is a reminder that they may need to make tough decisions in this transfer window as they manage their squad and finances.
