LaLiga: Barcelona hold off on permanent Rashford decision

Barcelona’s hierarchy is taking a measured approach to Marcus Rashford’s long-term future, insisting no final decision will be made until the end of the season.

The club remain aligned on a disciplined evaluation process despite the forward’s impressive impact since arriving on loan.

Rashford’s revival strengthens his case

Rashford joined Barcelona last summer on a season-long loan from Manchester United and has since rediscovered his sharpest form.

Benefiting from Hansi Flick’s depleted attacking options, the 28-year-old has delivered 15 goal contributions across all competitions, prompting calls for his move to be made permanent.

Club keeps purchase clause on hold

According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are resisting any pressure to accelerate the decision.

The €30 million purchase option remains active, but the club will only trigger it if Rashford’s end-of-season assessment meets their performance benchmarks.

Strategic patience

For now, the Englishman’s consistency is strengthening his portfolio, but Barcelona’s leadership is keeping the process tightly controlled.

A final verdict will be issued only after a full review once the campaign concludes.
