Rashford moves closer to Barca after passing medical

Agency:

Marcus Rashford moved closer to completing his move to FC Barcelona from Manchester United on Monday when he underwent his medical with the Spanish club.

Both Spanish and British media reported that the 27-year-old was at Barcelona’s training facilities for medical tests, with the move expected to be finalized within hours and his official presentation scheduled for Wednesday.

Rashford will join Barcelona on an initial season-long loan, with the club holding an option to make the transfer permanent for around 35 million euros ($41 million) at the end of the 2025-26 season.

This marks Rashford’s second consecutive loan spell after spending the second half of last season at Aston Villa, where he scored four goals in 17 appearances across all competitions.
