Barcelona has reportedly asked Manchester United to extend Marcus Rashford's loan for another season. Rashford joined the Catalans last summer on loan and has publicly expressed his wish to continue at the club.
The initial deal includes a €30 million purchase option, yet Barcelona show reluctance to activate it. Meanwhile, Manchester United remains firm on the price, unwilling to negotiate a discount. Consequently, Barcelona is exploring a second loan season with an obligatory clause for partial payment at the end of this season and a permanent signing planned for 2027.
This approach indicates Barcelona values Rashford highly but prefers to spread out the financial burden. The final outcome depends on whether Manchester United agrees to these terms and the clubs reach a suitable deal.
