Pogba: Rashford’s departure is a misfortune for Manchester United
Another unexpected transfer is happening in the football world. One of Manchester United’s main forwards, Englishman Marcus Rashford, is reportedly moving to Barcelona — a topic now at the center of European media attention. Marca was the first to report this.

Reportedly, the 27-year-old footballer flew to Spain on Saturday and held negotiations with Barcelona’s management. His transfer is valued at 30 million euros. Currently, the final details of the contract are being agreed upon.

One of the first to react to the situation was AS Monaco midfielder and former Manchester United player Paul Pogba. According to him, United is making a big mistake.

“This is madness. But despite that, I’m happy for Rashford. Moving to a big club like Barcelona is a great opportunity for him to prove himself again,” said Pogba.

Pogba also emphasized that Manchester United is currently signing new players, but results are demanded as well: “This team must win. If the coach doesn’t deliver results, being fired is inevitable.”

It’s worth noting that Marcus Rashford spent the second half of the 2024/25 season on loan at Aston Villa. He played 17 matches there, scoring 4 goals and providing 6 assists.

Among football fans, opinions about this transfer are divided. Some believe Barcelona’s move is a smart investment, while others argue that United has made yet another poor decision.

There is no doubt that Rashford’s future at Camp Nou is of great interest. Will he manage to secure a place in Barcelona’s squad? And will his former team be able to replace him?

Answers will become clear when the season begins. But one thing is certain: United has lost its academy graduate, and Barcelona has gained a new “force”.
