Catalan giants Barcelona are eager to secure a permanent transfer for Marcus Rashford, but a major obstacle stands in their way. While the agreement between the clubs includes a buyout clause for the player, the problem isn't the transfer fee.
According to Barca Universal, the Catalans are pleased with the forward's performances and would like to keep him in the squad. However, they are questioning the feasibility of a buyout due to the striker's high wages. Sources indicate that if Rashford truly wants to remain at Barcelona on a permanent basis, he will have to agree to a significant reduction in salary.
Interestingly, club sporting director Deco is already preparing a list of alternative options in case the Englishman refuses their terms. The names of potential new signings remain under wraps for now.
