According to @MatteMoretto, Barcelona have recently held talks about the potential signing of Marcus Rashford.
Both sporting director Deco and new head coach Hansi Flick are said to be big fans of the English forward. Rashford was already on Barcelona’s radar during the January transfer window, and he remains a serious option for the summer.
Why Rashford Might Be a Better Fit Than Luis DÃaz:
- Pace and Directness:
Rashford offers speed and vertical movement that Barcelona currently lack on the left side. His ability to stretch opposing defenses creates more space for midfielders and boosts the fluidity of the team’s attack. - Goal Scoring Consistency:
Despite a recent dip in form, Rashford regularly scores 15 to 20+ goals per season. He’s seen as a more dependable scorer in open play compared to DÃaz. - Versatility:
Capable of playing both on the left wing and as a central striker, Rashford gives Flick greater tactical flexibility. His physicality also adds a different dimension to Barcelona’s offensive setup.
