Marcus Rashford leaves Barcelona

Far from controversies and injuries, Marcus Rashford has made a striking start at FC Barcelona. Signed this summer from Manchester United, the English forward has seamlessly adapted to Hansi Flick's playing style, already tallying five goals and seven assists in thirteen appearances across all competitions. But on Wednesday, one absence caught the attention of observers: the player did not take part in the Catalan club’s group training session.

An absence managed and approved

According to the daily Sport, Rashford received special permission from his coach and Barça management to briefly fly to Manchester. The aim of this trip was to continue personalized physical training with his own coach at a high-performance center he has frequented for years. This collaboration between his personal team and the Barça staff reflects a modern, coordinated approach to managing the player's fitness.

The Englishman is expected to rejoin the Catalan squad as early as tomorrow, ready to tackle a packed fixture list. It's Rashford’s way of maintaining peak condition and cementing his growing influence in an ambitious Barcelona side, where he is steadily establishing himself as a key attacking figure in Hansi Flick’s new era.
