Manchester United and Barcelona on collision course over fee for Marcus Rashford | OneFootball

Manchester United and Barcelona are on a collision course over the valuation of Marcus Rashford.

According to the Daily Mirror, the Catalan giants are looking to make the 27-year-old loan move permanent in a deal worth around £25 million.

But that is unacceptable for United as they value Rashford closer to £40m.

The England international joined Barca on a season-long loan following a fallout with manager Ruben Amorim just a month after he took over from Erik ten Hag.

Rashford has had an impressive start to life in Spain, contributing to the Blaugrana’s undefeated beginning to the new season.

The forward has already made six appearances and scored two brilliant goals in last week’s Champions League win against Newcastle United.

However, manager Hansi Flick dropped him from the starting XI for the home fixture against Getafe as a punishment for turning up late to training.

Rashford is one of the best talents to emerge from United’s youth academy.

He has spent nearly his entire career at Man Utd, netting 138 goals in 426 appearances and helping them win two FA Cups, two Carabao Cups and a Europa League trophy.

However, Rashford has already played his last game for United as he has no plans to return to the club.

Barcelona have the option to make his loan move permanent next summer, but they are keen to negotiate a lower fee for the experienced forward.
