The Catalan club face familiar financial hurdles that threaten the English player&rsquo;s registration for the upcoming La Liga season. The England international has agreed to join Barca on a season-long loan from Manchester United.<\/p><p>Barca have an option to buy, but Rashford may have to wait to play competitive football in Spain. Barcelona&rsquo;s well-documented financial struggles have already impacted their transfer activity this summer. La Liga president Javier Tebas warned the club may not yet be able to register Rashford.&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; Rashford joins Bar&ccedil;a but can't be registered &#128309;&#128308;<br><br>Marcus Rashford has agreed to join Barcelona on loan with a pay cut, but LaLiga registration issues could stop him from playing.<br><br>Will Rashford's dream Bar&ccedil;a move fall apart before it begins? &#128071;<br><br>(Source: talksport) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/70NbgJM8gD\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/70NbgJM8gD<\/a><\/p>&mdash; SleeperFootballNews (@SleeperFootNews) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SleeperFootNews\/status\/1947374555007263097?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 21, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>The club is reportedly over their salary limit. Reportedly, they&rsquo;re spending more on wages and transfers than it has generated in revenue during the 2024-25 season. Thankfully for them, Rashford agreed to a significant wage cut from his &pound;325,000-a-week Man United salary.<\/p><p>He agreed to around &euro;10 million gross at Camp Nou. Rashford is hopeful that the club can resolve the situation before the La Liga opener against Real Mallorca on August 16. According to talkSPORT&rsquo;s Andy Brassell:&nbsp;<\/p><p>&ldquo;He&rsquo;s taking a pay cut to make this happen, but there&rsquo;s still no guarantee, certainly if you believe Javier Tebas, that Barcelona will be able to register him for the moment.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/barcelona-la-liga-2025-26-fixtures-key-matches\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Barcelona La Liga 2025-26 Fixtures: Full Schedule, Key Matches, and More<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p>This is not the first time Barcelona have faced such challenges.

Unlucky for them.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p><p>For now, Rashford will travel with Barca on their pre-season tour of Asia. He could also feature in front of the fans during friendlies, including the Joan Gamper Trophy against Como on August 10.
