Rashford is pushing for a transfer to Barcelona, having reportedly even offered his services to the Catalan club. According to sport.es, Barcelona are considering the move, but negotiations are currently on hold.
According to trabsfer news guru Fabrizio Romano, United are hoping to receive around €48 million for Rashford. A potential stumbling block for a move to Barcelona, however, is the forward's high salary, reportedly $15 million per season, as Rashford is one of United's highest earners.
The Red Devils reportedly want to sell Rashford to terminate his contract and avoid paying out the remainder of his hefty £290,000-per-week deal, which runs until 2028. Both parties are looking for a permanent solution in the coming months.
