United, understandably, are entirely closed off to the prospect of selling their academy graduate, whose fee would count as pure profit, for anything below the sum they’ve set.

Rashford’s complete record for United

You could even argue that Rashford’s value has increased throughout the course of the campaign, given he returned a hugely impressive 14 goals and 14 assists in 49 appearances across all competitions.

Rashford has sights firmly set on Camp Nou stay

Hansi Flick has reportedly directly informed Rashford that he is relying on him for 2026/2027, albeit he’d be better off telling the board that, given they’re the ones who are dragging their heels over his potential transfer.

United are also unwilling to facilitate another loan, as they want to reinvest the funds they make on a replacement when the window opens.

Depth across the squad will be imperative ahead of the side’s return to the Champions League, where Rashford – if he does sign for Barcelona – could come up against his boyhood club for the first time.
