Barcelona forward Marcus Rashford is gearing up for his first-ever El Clásico this weekend, and the Englishman could not hide his excitement ahead of the blockbuster clash against Real Madrid. After scoring a brace in Barça’s recent victory, Rashford spoke passionately about what the occasion means to him.
“It’s a big match, a massive one… but let me say, that’s why I came here to Barça! I’m here to make an impact in these kinds of games,” Rashford said with a confident smile. The 27-year-old joined Barcelona during the summer on a loan deal, and his arrival has already added a fresh spark to the Catalan attack.
Rashford’s pace, directness, and eye for goal have quickly made him a fan favourite at the Olympic Stadium. With four goals in his last three appearances, he enters the El Clásico in fine form, something Barcelona fans will be counting on as they prepare to face their fiercest rivals.
I’m really looking forward to playing it, and I hope we win of course… I’ll do my absolute best for it,” he added, showing both humility and determination.
