According to Sport, Manchester United are willing to reduce Marcus Rashford's buyout clause; the forward is determined to remain at Camp Nou, but Barcelona still need to weigh their wage budget.
Barcelona have told Manchester United they are willing to pay £26 million to buy out Marcus Rashford, but with two conditions attached to the deal structure; INEOS have issued a response.
Spanish media report that Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick does not want to keep Marcus Rashford and is urging him to accept the Gunners' bid; the club did not trigger his €30m buyout clause, with squad space tightening after Anthony Gordon's arrival.
Barcelona are looking to sign Marcus Rashford for roughly half his valuation, with Manchester United's weekly wage burden potentially the key to letting him go; Aston Villa remain a fallback if no deal is done.
Deco held four-hour talks with Julian Alvarez's agent as Barcelona prepare a €90m bid; Anthony Gordon's move is set to be announced, while Marcus Rashford's permanent transfer could fall through.
Gordon is set for a medical ahead of joining Barcelona, while Rashford's €30m buy option expires on 15 June and Manchester United have refused to negotiate a loan extension.
Anthony Gordon's arrival has disrupted Barcelona's buyout timetable, with Rashford still hoping to remain at Camp Nou; stakeholders are increasingly accepting he will leave this summer, while United are holding out for around £30 million.
His loan at Barcelona has produced 28 goal involvements, yet a permanent-deal tug-of-war drags on; United have ruled out taking him back, Real Madrid are circling with Mourinho interested, and the forward could link up with the squad for pre-season first.
Marcus Rashford's future has emerged as one of the summer's biggest talking points, with Barcelona ready to pay €30 million to trigger his buyout clause while Manchester United insist on receiving the full fee upfront. Tottenham, Arsenal and Bayern Munich are all keeping a close eye on developments.
Fourteen goals and fourteen assists on loan this season, including a free-kick winner in El Clásico that helped Barcelona defend their La Liga title; talks over a permanent deal versus a second loan are heating up.
