Marcus Rashford ‘could make shock Barcelona swap transfer with ex-Chelsea and Arsenal target moving to Man Utd’

BARCELONA are considering a swoop for Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford, according to reports.

Rashford, 26, scored 30 goals and provided 11 assists for the Red Devils last season but has struggled to replicate that form this term.

And now the forward is being linked with a move away from Old Trafford.

Calciomercato claim Barcelona are considering a shock move for Rashford.

A potential swap deal could also be on the cards, with the La Liga champions allegedly willing to send Raphinha the other way.

United were linked with a move for the Brazil international in 2021 alongside Chelsea and Arsenal.

The two London sides then battled it out in a bid to sign him, but he instead decided to join Barcelona.

He has since made 64 appearances for Xavi‘s side, scoring 12 goals.

Meanwhile, Rashford signed a bumper five-year United contract worth £325,000-a-week just five months ago.

However, fans have been far from impressed with him in recent weeks.

Speaking on Premier League Productions, he said: “Marcus last year was brilliant and he’s got ability, there is no doubt about that.

“But when you decide to walk back like he was, and he comes off and behaves like that, I do not think it’s good for the team.

“And he’s one of the most experienced players now. He’s a player that players look up to. Mainoo looks up to him. Garnacho looks up to him.”
