Marcus Rashford drops new Barcelona message as team-mates' feelings clear on transfer outcome

Marcus Rashford faces an uncertain future at Manchester United after his loan spell at Barcelona came to an end

Marcus Rashford has posted a farewell message to Barcelona as the Manchester United star is shown support by his former teammates.

Rashford spent last season on loan at Barcelona and there was an expectation that the England international would go on to complete a permanent switch to the Camp Nou.

Barcelona had the option of signing Rashford for £26million, but have chosen not to activate the clause and instead decided to bring Anthony Gordon and Karim Adeyemi to the club.

Rashford will now return to United this summer following his break after the World Cup and the 28-year-old has now sent a message to Barcelona offering his appreciation to the club and its supporters.

“I’m very grateful to everyone at the club for making my time here such a positive and memorable experience,” Rashford posted on Instagram.

“I’ve enjoyed every moment and will take many special memories with me.

“I wish the club and all its supporters the very best of luck and every success in the season ahead. Visca el Barça [Long live Barca].”

Several of Rashford’s now-former Barcelona teammates went on to send messages to the United forward with comments on the England international’s post.

Roony Bardghji wrote: “I’ll miss you bro,” accompanied by a red love heart emoji, while Gerard Martin added: “All the best rashyyy, you are top bro!!”

Former Manchester City star Joao Cancelo wrote: “All the best my bro. Top player,” while rumoured United transfer target Marc Casado added: “Thanks for all Rashy, all the best!”

Rashford will now face an uncertain future when he returns to United following his summer break, having helped England reach the semi-final of the World Cup.

Both Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal have been linked as potential destinations for Rashford in the event that a permanent move away from Old Trafford were to happen.

Rashford scored 14 goals and provided 14 assists during his loan spell at Barcelona, and it now remains to be seen where the forward will be playing his football this forthcoming season.

The 28-year-old has not made a competitive appearance for United since December 2024, and there have been reports that the Reds could accept an offer worth around £30m if one was to be made before the September 1 deadline.
