Barcelona are interested in signing Manchester United attacker Marcus Rashford during the summer transfer window.

According to a report from French publication Foot Mercato, Barcelona will explore a loan-to-buy deal for the England international. Meanwhile, as reported by Mundo Deportivo via Sport Witness, they are hoping to take advantage of the situation and sign him for a reasonable fee.

The player is unwanted at Manchester United and is keen on an exit as well. It remains to be seen whether Barcelona can sign him for a knockdown price. There is no doubt he is a quality player who could be an asset for Barcelona in the upcoming campaign. He is capable of slotting into multiple attacking roles and will look to get his career back on track with regular football at the Spanish club.

Barcelona could use Rashford

Barcelona recently won the Spanish league title, and they will be eager to fight for it next season as well. They need to keep improving their squad in order to perform better next season. Rashford is a versatile attacker who can play in multiple attacking roles. Signing him could prove to be a wise decision. He has proven himself at Manchester United in the past. Although he is currently lacking form and confidence, he is a quality player who could be an asset for Barcelona if he manages to regain his best.

He managed to impress Aston Villa during the second half of last season while on loan at the English club, where he was an important player. They were expected to sign him permanently this summer, but the player is keen on moving to Spain instead. It remains to be seen whether Barcelona can convince Manchester United to accept their proposal when it is presented. Manchester United will look to offload the player quickly and bring in a quality replacement. They are lacking in depth and quality in the attacking unit, and signing a quality striker will be a priority for them.
