Barcelona have reportedly entered the race to secure Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford on loan during the January transfer window.
Rashford has found himself sidelined by new manager Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford and recently expressed his intentions for the future, stating he’s “ready for a new challenge” this winter.
Prominent football journalist Fabrizio Romano, along with Spanish outlet Diario Sport, report that Barcelona have shown interest in acquiring the 26-year-old for the remainder of the season.
The Catalan giants are said to have initiated contact with Rashford’s representatives to signal their intent.

The English forward has also been linked with other top clubs, including AC Milan, Borussia Dortmund, Juventus, Arsenal, and West Ham, in recent weeks.
A significant hurdle for potential suitors, however, is Rashford’s staggering wages. The England international reportedly earns over €350,000 per week at Manchester United, presenting a considerable financial challenge for any club hoping to secure his services.
Despite the financial implications, Barcelona president Joan Laporta is reportedly determined to bolster Hansi Flick’s squad during the winter transfer window, viewing Rashford as a valuable addition to the team.
