Marcus Rashford
December 2025
Gerard Pique has named Marcus Rashford as La Liga’s biggest surprise this season, praising the Manchester United loanee for adding direct running and six goals to Hansi Flick’s Barcelona side while accepting that Real Madrid forward Kylian Mbappe is operating on a completely different level. Rashford, on a season long loan to revive his career, has quickly adapted to Spanish football with two league strikes and four in the Champions League, while Pique told Sport that Mbappe’s goal a game start confirms his status as the division’s dominant superstar.
