Marcus Rashford arrived in Catalonia on Sunday and is expected to be officially unveiled as a Barcelona player this week as a seven-month-long saga belatedly nears its conclusion.
After being exiled from Manchester United’s first-team squad by Ruben Amorim last December following a series of unimpressive training displays, Rashford opened himself up to a “new challenge”. As reported at the time, the England international’s dream destination lay on mainland Europe.
