Fabrizio Romano exposed the real facts about a circulating transfer rumor involving a Manchester United player, calling it “complete bulls***.”
Even though the English transfer market is closed, there is no lack of news about transfers that is creating headlines. In a stunning change of events, Andre Onana is expected to nearly treble his take-home income as he heads to Trabzonspor on a straight loan. Later, more on that.
Rasmus Hojlund’s move from Manchester United to Napoli features a crucial but mainly unknown clause. In other news, there has been conjecture in Spain that Marcus Rashford’s loan at Barcelona may be terminated.
The rumor seemed to originate from a well-known Catalan site that isn’t regarded for being very trustworthy, to put it gently. However, since then, the story has been published in several of England’s leading newspapers.
Rashford signed a season-long loan deal with Barcelona that includes a €35 million buyout option.
Despite starting only once in three games and being hooked at halftime in that encounter, he has had a sluggish start to life at Camp Nou.
Fabrizio Romano, however, responded angrily and profanely to the rumors that Barcelona may end Rashford’s loan, correcting the record on his YouTube channel.
“I don’t know where this story is coming from, to be honest I think it’s really a shame to see these kind of rumours,” began Romano.
“There’s absolutely zero into it. Barcelona are very happy with Rashford, very happy with the deal they did. It’s a loan with buy option so for Barca even financially it’s not a big problem.
“They’re very happy with the attitude of Marcus Rashford. They are waiting obviously for Marcus to adapt, new football, new league, new city, new teammates, after spending a lot of time always in the same country.
“So for Rashford it’s a big opportunity, he knows that. But they are completely aligned. They are starting this new chapter with optimism and confidence.
“So at the moment these reports of Barcelona terminating the loan deal early for Rashford is complete bulls***. There’s nothing at all into it.”
