Manchester United not deterred by latest updates on Marcus Rashford

Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford is currently on loan at Barcelona, and he has impressed at the Spanish club.

Barcelona have the option to make the move permanent for a fee of €30 million at the end of the season, but they have not yet exercised it. It seems that they are looking to low-ball Manchester United and sign Marcus Rashford for a knock-down fee.

Manchester United ready to stick to their demands

However, Manchester United have no such plans, and they are prepared to wait for other offers to sell the player. According to ESPN, Manchester United are completely relaxed about the situation, and they are not desperate to get rid of the England international right now.

Barcelona would have to pay the asking price in order to get the deal done. The Spanish champions are aware that Rashford is unwanted at Manchester United. It is natural for them to try to sign him for a low price. However, Manchester United are unlikely to budge on their demands. It remains to be seen whether any other club is willing to come forward and provide the England international with an exit route in the summer.

Rashford is in fine form

He has been exceptional for the Spanish club, recording 20 goal contributions in all competitions. He has impressed in La Liga and the UEFA Champions League. Barcelona needed a versatile attacker like him who could slot in anywhere across the front three. The 28-year-old is not just a reliable goalscorer; he has shown that he can operate on the flanks and add creativity to the team as well. A complete forward like him will be an asset for Barcelona in the coming seasons, and they should do everything in their power to get the deal done.

If they fail to stump up the cash, it is quite likely that other clubs will step in and take advantage of the situation.

It is believed that Rashford has his heart set on a move to Barcelona. He will look to sort out his long-term future quickly, so that he can focus on his football. The attacker has two years left on his current contract with Manchester United, and they would be happy for him to return if they cannot find a suitor.
