Barcelona have an opportunity to sign Manchester United’s Marcus Rashford in the winter market.
Last week, Sport reported the forward prefers a move to the Blaugrana over all other destinations, but Barcelona’s financial situation is making things difficult.
The Manchester United player is on the front page of Saturday’s Mundo Deportivo, with ‘Gesture by Rashford’ written in bold.
Within the report, it’s explained the 27-year-old’s priority is to join Hansi Flick’s side in this window.
Earlier this week, Barcelona sealed a 5-4 away win over Benfica in the Champions League.
Barca sporting director Deco held talks with Arturo Canales, who is the intermediary of this deal, in Lisbon before the match. The representative informed the Catalan club that Rashford is willing to lower his salary to join them.
The England international is aware of the Blaugrana’s economic situation and is ready to do his part to secure a move. Mundo state the Spanish giants have to lower their wage bill [by getting rid of a player] to sign Rashford.
If there’s no exit, then Barcelona will not only need an effort from Rashford but also from Manchester United. The report talks about the Red Devils covering at least 50% of the attacker’s salary.
