From cautious glances to full-on admiration

Barcelona are ready to turn Marcus Rashford’s loan from Manchester United into a permanent deal worth £25m plus £5m in add-ons after his standout start. The English forward has scored three and assisted five in ten games—proof that sometimes even La Liga defences ghost harder than his DMs.

Coach Hansi Flick praised his ‘unbelievable’ finishing, and Rashford himself says he hopes to stay ‘as many seasons as possible.’ From summer doubts to outright delight, Barça now see him as a bargain find, not a merely borrowed talent.
