Manchester United loanee Marcus Rashford described a permanent stay at Barcelona as his “ultimate goal,” but warned that it is not the only driving force behind his promising start to life in Catalonia.
Rashford has been pining after a move to Barça since the winter of 2024. After falling firmly out of favor under Ruben Amorim at his boyhood club, it became clear to the academy graduate that he would have to move on. As Rashford subsequently admitted, Barcelona was the dream last January, yet a short-term stay at Aston Villa would have to suffice.
