Despite circulating rumors, GIVEMESPORT senior journalist Fabrizio Romano has disclosed that Barcelona is not contemplating ending Marcus Rashford’s loan agreement.
The Manchester United loanee was linked with a shock Nou Camp departure in recent days, but Romano thinks there is ‘absolutely zero’ truth in the rumors linking Rashford with an early move.
Rashford’s attitude and the loan agreement with Manchester United, which includes the possibility of making the 27-year-old’s move permanent after the season, are reportedly highly praised by Barcelona.
In more than 90 minutes on the pitch, Rashford has not scored or provided an assist in his three La Liga games for Barcelona this season, including one start.
Barcelona Not Considering Rashford Exit
Romano, speaking on his YouTube channel, revealed that Barcelona are not thinking about terminating Rashford’s loan early and are ‘very happy’ with the 27-year-old so far:
“Many questions coming, to be honest, I don’t even know from where, because many of you ask me, is it true Fabrizio that Barcelona are considering terminating the contract of Marcus Rashford early.
“I don’t know where this story is coming from. Guys, to be honest, I think it’s really a shame to see these kind of rumors, because there is absolutely zero into it.
“Barcelona are very happy with Rashford. They’re very happy with the deal they did. It’s a loan with a buy option.
“So for Barca, even financially it’s not a big problem. They’re very happy with the attitude of Marcus Rashford.”
Rashford has no future at United under head coach Ruben Amorim, who froze the England international out of his first-team squad last season.
The 27-year-old was on loan at Aston Villa for the second half of the 2024–25 season, when he was able to regain his form, making 17 appearances and dishing up four goals and six assists.
With an estimated weekly salary of £232,000, Rashford is one of the highest-paid players and has a deal at Old Trafford through the summer of 2028.
This summer, Rashford, Jadon Sancho, and Rasmus Hojlund left on loan, while Antony and Alejandro Garnacho, two wingers, left on permanent contracts.
On the day of the deadline, the Old Trafford team acquired goalkeeper Senne Lammens and strikers Matheus Cunha, Bryan Mbeumo, and Benjamin Sesko.
