Manchester United loanee Marcus Rashford continued his sparkling form at Barcelona by adding another goal contribution to his tally in the Champions League.
Marcus Rashford fell out of favour under Ruben Amorim at Manchester United and subsequently made his move to Barcelona on loan.
Since his move to Spain, Rashford is enjoying his football again, and that is evident in both his performances and output.
Now Ruben Amorim has been fired, do you want Marcus Rashford to have another chance at Man Utd?
Rashford lifted the Super Cup with Barcelona this month, and the Catalan side are also leading La Liga and pursuing Champions League glory.
Barcelona beat Slavia Praha 4-2 on Wednesday night, and Rashford once again contributed to a goal in the Champions League.
Marcus Rashford has been Barcelona’s Champions League star
Rashford was left out of Hansi Flick’s starting XI for Barcelona’s latest Champions League clash, but he came off the bench and had a positive impact.
Just seven minutes after coming on as a substitute, Rashford set up Lewandowski for Barcelona’s fourth goal of the game.
It means Rashford now has eight goal contributions (4 goals, 4 assists) in Barcelona’s seven Champions League games this season.
It means that Rashford is leading all Barcelona players for goal contributions in the Champions League – more than the likes of Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and Lewandowski.
What was the best goal Marcus Rashford scored for Manchester United? ⚽︎
Rashford scored his only United hat-trick in the Champions League back in 2020 when he came off the bench to score three against RB Leipzig. It has always been a competition he has enjoyed.
Man United cannot bend Marcus Rashford asking price
The summer loan deal included a £26m buy option for Rashford which Barcelona can choose to trigger in the summer.
That fee already is a complete injustice to United considering the Red Devils previously fought off £100 million interest in the Carrington graduate.
Barcelona are in talks for Rashford and are eager to lower the transfer fee for his signature or even negotiate a second loan deal in 2026/27.
Rashford’s incredible form means that United must stand firm, be stubborn, and refuse to accept anything less than the agreed fee.
As an academy product, Rashford’s sale will be huge for PSR and could free up United to spend more on their own signings.
