Transfer: Rashford insists on key role ahead of possible move to Barcelona

Manchester United attacker, Marcus Rashford has demanded a starring role if he joins Barcelona.

According to Catalonian news outlet El Nacional, Rashford will only join the Catalan club if he is guaranteed a significant role in manager Hansi Flick’s squad.

The England international won’t settle with a role from the bench as his sights is set on a place at the 2026 World Cup.

The report added that the 27-year-old is reportedly willing to turn down a move to the LaLiga champions if he is not offered heavy involvement in the team in the upcoming new season.

Rashford’s potential move to the Blaugrana appears more likely since Flick’s side failed to sign their number one target Nico Williams from Athletic Bilbao.

However, it is widely reported that Liverpool’s Luis Diaz is Barcelona’s second choice before Rashford.

But Barca will have to battle Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich who are also interested in Diaz .
