Marcus Rashford

By Seyi Babalola

Marcus Rashford, Manchester United’s attacker, disclosed that he wants to move to Barcelona.

Last season, manager Ruben Amorim benched Rashford at Old Trafford.

It led to the England international joining Aston Villa on loan in January until the end of the season.

Rashford is widely expected to leave permanently this summer, and he has now confessed he wants to play alongside Lamine Yamal.

Speaking to Spanish YouTube channel XBuyer, Rashford was asked whether he wants to play with Yamal one day.

He replied: “Yeah, sure. Everybody in the world wants to play with the best. So hopefully, we’ll see…”

Rashford also expressed his readiness to switch his role from the wing into a more central position.

“For me as I’ve got older, the Num 9 position is becoming more comfortable, more natural,” he said.
