Amorim last season, which resulted in Rashford being dropped from the squad.<\/p>\n<p>He joined Aston Villa on loan during the January transfer window and made an impression in his short time there.<\/p>\n<p>Since joining Barcelona in the summer, the player seems to have completely found his rhythm, contributing eight goals (three goals and five assists) in 10 games.<\/p>\n<p>His performances have caught the attention of the Barcelona board, who are now looking to sign him on a permanent contract.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

Sun, the Spanish giants have already decided to sign him permanently in the summer of 2026.<\/p>\n<p>According to the newspaper, Barcelona were initially hesitant to sign Rashford as they did not understand why Man United would let him go and suspected that there was something wrong with the player.<\/p>\n<p>However, after seeing his performances at the club, the club are &#8220;shocked&#8221; by the permanent contract clause that would allow him to join Barca for just \u00a325m plus \u00a35m add-ons, a sum that Barcelona consider to be a good bargain.<\/p>\n<h2><span

data-start=\"169\" data-end=\"414\">Rashford has developed into a key figure at Manchester United since his breakthrough in 2016.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"169\" data-end=\"414\">The England international, who came out of United&#8217;s academy, quickly became a fan favorite and one of the modern faces of the team.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"169\" data-end=\"414\">His best season for the club came in 2022\/23, when he finished with 30 goals and 12 assists for the club.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"554\" data-end=\"671\">Rashford has made 426 appearances in all competitions for Manchester United, scoring 138 goals and providing 78 assists.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"673\" data-end=\"803\">There is a good chance he has already played his last game for the club as Barcelona aim to make him a permanent transfer.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"805\" data-end=\"1091\">The chances of a return are slim and depend on whether Ruben Amorim is sacked and his successor wants to sign Rashford.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"805\" data-end=\"1091\">However, that scenario is becoming increasingly unlikely with Sir Jim Ratcliffe publicly backing the Portuguese manager for the next three years.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><!-- Article End -->\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Photo credit: Michael
