Barcelona included an option to buy Rashford worth €30 million at the end of the season, while the loan fee itself reached €5 million. And the decision to make his status permanent will be a boost for both player and club. Club members voted in favor of Rashford’s permanent signing last month, with 54.6 per cent of those surveyed backing his permanent signing.
Rashford has previously spoken about his love for the club and city following his move to Spain last summer. Talk to SPORT Last month, Rashford said: “All I want is to stay at Barca. That is the main goal, but not the reason I train hard and give my best. The goal is to win. Barca is a big, fantastic club, built to win titles.”
And when asked about his first impressions of the city and how he is adapting to Barcelona,
“For me, the reason I’m here is to help the team win trophies; last season was fantastic, but life goes by very fast, things change, and the aim is to repeat that success. I’m completely focused on that. Everything is fantastic with the staff and my team-mates; I have no complaints.”
