Marcus Rashford
February 2026
Manchester United are reportedly unwilling to renegotiate a previously agreed £26m fee for Barcelona to sign Marcus Rashford permanently. Barcelona are said to want the price reduced, despite Rashford producing 10 goals and 13 assists in 34 appearances and having his full wages covered. United want Rashford’s wages off the books and are planning wider salary reshaping with exits and contract decisions looming. The stance is to hold the agreed figure and avoid reopening negotiations even if Barcelona push for a lower deal.
