Fabrizio Romano denies claims that Barcelona's buyout clause for Marcus Rashford from Manchester United expired in March. Reports suggested the Red Devils allowed Rashford to join Barcelona on a season-long loan with a €30 million buyout clause. Previously, Rashford spent six months on loan at Aston Villa due to a fallout with former Man Utd boss Ruben Amorim.
Recent rumors indicate Barcelona seeks to renegotiate the deal to manage their summer budget better. Yet, Romano asserts that the €30 million option remains valid until the end of the current season. He states, “If Barcelona wants to pay that amount tomorrow, they can still sign Marcus Rashford.”
Behind the scenes, Barcelona has a personal agreement with Rashford, but they prefer to restructure the deal with Manchester United. The club aims to target key players like Alessandro Bastoni but faces challenges in negotiations.
Barcelona is also eyeing Julian Alvarez, yet Atletico Madrid is unwilling to sell. The gap remains clear: Manchester United demands the full €30 million, while Barcelona explores alternative arrangements. Rashford enjoys his time at Barcelona and is valued by Hansi Flick for his contributions on the field.
