Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick recently revealed that he himself is behind the transfer of newly joined striker Marcus Rashford. According to the coach, he spoke with the team's sporting director, Deku, during the summer transfer window and strongly insisted on bringing in this particular player.
"In the summer, I addressed Deco: 'I need a player like Marcus Rashford. "Please, bring him!" And it's a great joy for me that he's at Camp Nou today," Flick said.
According to the experienced coach, Rashford was a rare opportunity in the transfer market, and Barcelona had to capitalize on it. "I spoke with him personally and told him that the team trusts you. This is also a big step for him, because he will have the opportunity to prove himself in a new environment," the coach added.
Marcus Rashford's first steps for Barcelona amazed the fans. In the first round of the Champions League against Newcastle, the English striker scored two goals, securing a crucial victory for his team. This result once again confirmed that his transfer was the right decision.
"Our trust in Rashford is evident in his actions on the field. He not only scores goals, but also makes a great contribution to the team's game. We now have a very strong offensive line, and it's clear that he will become one of the key figures in this system," Flick said.
Football fans are also praising Rashford's debut on social media, referring to him as Barcelona's new star. It's emphasized that the striker has proven himself in Spain with his speed, field activity, and goal-scoring ability, capturing the hearts of fans.
As a reminder, Marcus Rashford is a Manchester United product and is known as one of the most talented forwards in Europe. He must now justify the trust placed in him at Barcelona.
Flick emphasized that the Rashford transfer is crucial not only for the team's tactics but also for the club's future plans. "We expect him to play a key role in our long-term project," the head coach concluded.
