Barcelona, Spain – Marcus Rashford is undergoing his medical examination in Barcelona today, marking a pivotal step in his imminent loan move to FC Barcelona.
Manchester United has officially authorized his travel, signaling that all crucial documents are being exchanged between the two clubs throughout the day.
The 27-year-old English forward arrived in the Catalan capital last night, ready to finalize his highly anticipated transfer to the La Liga giants.
The move is structured as a season-long loan with a buy option, reported to be around €30-35 million, which can be activated next summer.
This transfer brings an end to Rashford’s long-standing tenure at Manchester United, where he has been a prominent figure since his academy days. Recent reports indicated his desire for a new challenge, and Barcelona, a club he has openly admired, emerged as his preferred destination.
For Barcelona, the acquisition of Rashford is a significant coup, aiming to bolster Hansi Flick’s attacking options, particularly on the left flank. His pace, directness, and goal-scoring ability are expected to add a new dimension to the Blaugrana’s front line.
With the medical tests underway and paperwork being exchanged, an official announcement from both clubs is expected very soon.
Once confirmed, Rashford is set to join the Barcelona squad for their pre-season tour, which departs for Asia later this week, allowing him to quickly integrate with his new teammates and adapt to his new environment.
Football fans worldwide will be eagerly watching as one of the Premier League’s most recognizable stars embarks on a new chapter in La Liga.
