- Flick issued warning to Rashford
- Manager approved Rashford’s loan move
- Rashford to be unveiled as Barca player
Rashford will finally end his 團結的 nightmare and exit Old Trafford this summer as he is all set to complete a loan move to 巴塞隆納. The 27-year-old reportedly rejected offers from the 沙特職業聯賽 and some top European clubs, as the winger only wanted a transfer to the Catalan side.
The negotiations picked up speed towards the end of last week after Flick personally spoke to Rashford, as reported by 運動. The German manager warned the winger that he would have to fight for his place in the team’s starting lineup and put in more work defensively. The report adds that concerns were raised internally over the 英格蘭 international’s work rate. Flick, however, gave his green signal after getting a verbal assurance from Rashford.

Rashford has his task cut out at Barcelona as he is expected to predominantly operate from the left side of their attack. He has to compete with 拉菲尼亞 in that position, who was one of the star performers for Flick’s side last season. In the central striker position, Rashford’s competition is with legendary Polish forward Robert Lewandowski.
Rashford could inherit the number of Lamine Yamal or Thierry Henry once he signs the dotted lines at Barcelona. The Spanish league winners have already confirmed that Yamal will take the iconic No.10 shirt after Ansu Fati’s loan move to 摩納哥.
