Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick declined to comment on the futures of Joao Cancelo and Marcus Rashford, both on loan at the club. With two months remaining in the season, Flick emphasized the need to have every player available until the very end.
He expressed confidence in all his squad members and avoided singling anyone out. "We expect every player to perform at their highest level. We will discuss and decide at season’s end," Flick said. He also noted that the upcoming World Cup might influence roster decisions ahead of the new season.
As a result, the club maintains uncertainty regarding the loaned players, and the final decisions will come after the season conclusion and post-World Cup period. This means Barcelona has not ruled out keeping Cancelo and Rashford but will consider all factors before finalizing plans.
