Barça in Check: The Two Threats for Marcus Rashford

The operation for Marcus Rashford would not be so simple for FC Barcelona. Although the player and Manchester United would provide all possible facilities to part ways, the priority for the forward would be to join a team where he can secure playing time, a requirement that the Catalans could not guarantee due to the presence of Lamine Yamal, Raphinha, and Lewandowski.

For this reason, according to reports from 'La Gazzetta dello Sport', AC Milan is increasingly gaining ground to secure the services of the Mancunian, who views the option of trying his luck in Serie A very favorably. The 'rossoneri' dream of his arrival until the end of the season and believe he would form a luxury trio alongside Rafael Leao and Álvaro Morata, which is why they are pushing to 'bring home the cat'.

An Unexpected Rival

Similarly, 'The Telegraph' has reported that AS Monaco has also entered the bidding for Rashford. The Monegasques suffered the loss of Folarin Balogun until April and would like to make a splash with Marcus's arrival in the Principality, although this option seems remote since alternatives like those from Milan and Barça are much more attractive to the player.

What is clear is that the Catalans will have to overcome two significant obstacles if they want to incorporate 'Rashie' into their ranks. The Catalans see him as an unbeatable opportunity to strengthen their squad with a proven star, but his 'secondary' role in the plans of the sports management could work against the club, which is trying to convince the Englishman to avoid his move to San Siro and see him dressed in blue and garnet.
