Marcus Rashford has made it to Barcelona as he has signed for the club for a season long loan + buy option. Barcelona wanted a winger lately and after Nico Williams and Luis Diaz, the only option left was Marcus Rashford. Rashford reveals the reason of leaving Red Devils after signing for Barca yesterday. Ruben Amorim doesn’t see Rashford in his plans and thus he asked him to leave the side.

Marcus Rashford has officially joined FC Barcelona on a season-long loan deal, which includes an option to buy. The Spanish giants were on the lookout for a winger this summer and, after failed pursuits of Nico Williams and Luis Díaz, they turned to the Manchester United forward as their final option.

Rashford completed his move to Barcelona yesterday and was unveiled by the club shortly after. The England international shared his thoughts on leaving Manchester United, a club where he rose through the ranks and made his name.

“The situation with United is the club is in a period of change and they have been for a while, so I don’t have anything bad to say about Manchester United. I’m grateful for the opportunity to play for them,” Rashford said in his first words as a Barcelona player.

New United boss Ruben Amorim reportedly made it clear that Rashford was not part of his plans for the upcoming season, prompting the forward to consider opportunities elsewhere.
