Barcelona faces new competition from Türkiye in race for Manchester United outcast

Marcus Rashford remains very much on Barcelona’s agenda as we enter the final week of the winter transfer window.

The 27-year-old is firmly out of the picture at Manchester United, with manager Ruben Amorim making it clear last weekend that there is no return for the striker.

“If things don’t change, I won’t change. I’d rather play our vital goalkeeping coach than a player who doesn’t give his best every day. I won’t change on that front.” The Red Devils manager said after the win against Fulham.

As previously reported, Rashford is waiting for Barcelona and is even prepared to reduce his salary to secure the transfer.

But Barcelona are yet to make a concrete move as they first need to offload a player or two to free up space for Rashford’s arrival.

In the meantime, however, Galatasaray and Fenerbahce have entered the race for the Manchester United outcast, Matteo Moretto reports.

Fenerbahce, managed by former Man United manager Jose Mourinho, are looking for an attacking signing and have even shown interest in out-of-favour Barcelona striker Ansu Fati, who is unwilling to leave.

Now, they have set their sights on Rashford, along with arch-rivals Galatasaray. As of now, however, the situation remains in the investigation stage, with no negotiations progressing.

Another Turkish club, Besiktas, is also said to be interested, with another former United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, recently taking the reins there.

However, as mentioned above, the English striker’s first choice remains Barcelona, ​​but a move to the Catalan club cannot happen unless a player is sold first to free up cap space.

Rashford is taking his time, carefully considering which direction to take. At present, I wouldn’t rule out any options and as such, Barcelona will need to act quickly if they intend to sign him.
