As a boost, head coach Hansi Flick has also given his approval for the move. The Manchester United forward is seeking a fresh start away from Old Trafford.<\/p><p>He showed interest in the move before and now a switch to Camp Nou appears increasingly likely. According to multiple reports, Rashford has emerged as Barcelona&rsquo;s preferred left-wing target after failed pursuits of Luis Diaz and Nico Williams.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#128680; Marcus Rashford is now Barcelona's clear left-wing target!<br><br>Barca are expected to push for a deal and are &ldquo;prepared to go all-in&rdquo; after Liverpool rejected their move for Luis D&iacute;az and Nico Williams renewed with Athletic Bilbao, according to Sky Germany &#127465;&#127466;&#9203; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/EmiTEy7VGe\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/EmiTEy7VGe<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Sky Sports Premier League (@SkySportsPL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SkySportsPL\/status\/1943612929250648367?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 11, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Diaz remains at Liverpool following two rejected approaches. Meanwhile Williams, who Barcelona were pushing for with all their force, signed a new long-term contract with Athletic Club. Spanish journalist Matteo Moretto reported that Flick has urged Barca&rsquo;s hierarchy to push ahead with a deal for Rashford.<\/p><p>However, Barca are favouring a loan move with an option to buy next summer. The club are keen to bolster their attack after missing out on key targets. Now they see the 27-year-old England international as the ideal addition alongside Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and Lamine Yamal.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/barcelona-return-to-camp-nou-ahead-of-joan-gamper\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Barcelona Closer to Camp Nou Return as Joan Gamper Trophy Plans Progress<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Marcus Rashford Out of Favour at Manchester United<\/h2><p>Rashford spent the latter half of last season on loan at Aston Villa.

It&rsquo;s also no secret that he has also fallen out of favour at Manchester United.<\/p><p>Rashford is currently training alone at Carrington. He is using the medical and rehab facilities, after Manchester United delayed his return to pre-season with Ruben Amorim&rsquo;s squad. His No.10 shirt has already been handed to the Red Devils&rsquo; new signing Matheus Cunha.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/man-united-handed-boost-as-napoli-return-for-garnacho\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Garnacho Edges Closer to Man Utd Exit as Napoli Return With &pound;45m Bid<\/a><\/strong><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Financial Hurdles for Barcelona<\/h2><p>Despite Flick agreeing, Barcelona&rsquo;s tight financial parameters remain a significant obstacle. The Catalan giants are exploring creative ways to structure the deal. This includes a potential wage-sharing agreement with United.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Rashford&rsquo;s &pound;300,000-a-week salary could otherwise scupper any immediate move. His willingness to lower his salary could help but Bayern Munich have also been linked with the Englishman.
