Barcelona will have difficulty to sign Marcus Rashford

DBasia.news – Barcelona as reported from El Nacional is targeting Manchester United striker, Marcus Rashford. Barca needs a new striker after a drag in gaining goals this season. However, the plan is not easy to implement.

Barcelona had a challenging season in 2021-2022. Barca are eliminated from the Champions League and only competed in the Europa League. In addition, Barcelona is also stuck in the middle of the La Liga standings.

Xavi Hernandez assesses, one of the problems that should be discussed is in the position of the attacker, as Barca do not have much choice at the post. Currently, Barca are too dependent on Memphis Depay.

Indeed, Barcelona have signed Sergio Aguero on a free transfer last summer. However, the former Atlético Madrid player suffered a heart disorder which caused him to be sidelined for some time. In fact, Aguero is rumored to retire.

Therefore, Xavi felt that the need for a new striker was urgent. Barca will also try to bring in the spearhead in the two 2022 transfer windows.

Los Cules are reportedly interested in signing Marcus Rashford. In addition to being young, the England national team striker is considered suitable for Barcelona’s style of play. Rashford has great speed and instinct to score goals.

The next question is whether Manchester United are willing to sell Rashford, as since being promoted in Louis van Gaal’s era, Rashford has shown promising graphics.

In addition, prices can be a constraint. Currently, Barcelona can not spend too much funds in the transfer market. Barca will try to be convincing with a loan formula plus a ransom option.

However, Manchester United is predicted to only want to sell Rashford permanently. Rashford’s value is estimated at no less than 100 million euros.

Apart from Rashford, Barcelona are reportedly also targeting Ferran Torres from Manchester City. Reportedly, the negotiations between the two sides are in serious condition.
