Barcelona may buy out Rashford in advance in the winter window, hoping Manchester United will reduce the price again! La Jue wants to sell two people to earn 74 million

Rashford's outstanding performance at Barcelona last week may be a blessing for Manchester United. Although they may be ridiculed for this, Sir Jim Ratcliff would not mind being mocked if he could receive a transfer fee of 30 million euros next year.

British media "TEAMtalk" reported that the better Rashford performs, the greater the possibility that Barcelona will exercise their purchasing options. Moreover, as a local trained player of Manchester United, the funds obtained from the sale of Rashford will be directly included in Manchester United's book net profit. A transfer fee of €30 million (£26 million) plus the player's £325,000 weekly salary can all help Manchester United improve their financial situation. Sources confirmed that Rashford has no chance of returning to Manchester United regardless of whether Ruben Amorin continues to coach, and it would not help even if he regained his best form at both Barcelona and England national teams. Now, the team has spent more than £200 million to sign Cunya, Mbemo and Sheshko, and Rashford has no place.

TEAMtalk said that if Rashford maintains its current performance, Barcelona may activate his buyout clause in advance in the winter transfer window in January next year. Premier League transfer expert Graeme Bailey revealed that Barcelona clearly expressed its hope to convert loan into permanent transfer. If Manchester United is willing to lower the price a little, they can trade in advance in January, which will help the club buy a new midfielder in the winter window.

According to Bailey, Barcelona hopes to sign Rashford at a price slightly lower than the agreed upon during the negotiations and may start negotiations in the coming weeks to see if they can win more discounts. Coach Flick inspired Rashford, who is about to celebrate his 28th birthday, to work harder and attract the club to take action.

"I said before and after the game that I fully believe in Rashford's strength, but you must always train hard and improve every day." Frick said, "You have to learn... what we have to do, what we need him to get from him. I will push him with all my strength and support him."

Rashford himself also clearly expressed his goals. He told the Daily Sports Daily: "I hope to play in Barcelona for as long as possible, let's wait and see if I can realize my wish. I must focus on doing my job well and helping the team as much as I can."

However, Barcelona has encountered new financial problems that may prevent them from completing their permanent transfer at Rashford. La Liga official confirmed on Friday that Barcelona's salary cap for the 2025/26 season has dropped from 463 million euros to 351 million euros, a decrease of 112 million euros. This salary cap covers salary, transfer fees and other team-related expenses. Once this limit is exceeded, La Liga will not approve its registration no matter how famous the players are.

"Competition Network" reported that the decision was due to a dispute over VIP box sales at Camp Nou, where previous auditors regarded a transaction worth 100 million euros as valid revenue, involving the sale of 475 boxes for 25 years. But now La Liga refuses to be certified, and the money cannot be included in Barcelona's budget.

At this moment, Barcelona's Camp Nou is still undergoing a renovation project of 1.25 billion pounds. The temporary home stadium Cruyff Arena has only 6,000 people, and another larger Montec Olympic Stadium can only accommodate 49,000 spectators, which has greatly reduced Barcelona's game day revenue. A senior Barcelona source warned that the reduction in home ticket revenue has severely limited the team's ability to operate in the transfer market. A new source of income or some players must be found to be sold in order to sign a long-term contract with Rashford.

But Barcelona is said to be not worried, thinking that once the Camp Nou is re-activated, the situation will be completely different. By then, not only will they recover their game day income, but they will also enable a complete VIP service package. They also look forward to the remaining 100 million euros payment in the hotel cooperation agreement.

Manchester United hopes that Barcelona can achieve their goals, Sir Jim Ratcliff and Ineos teams hope to receive a transfer fee of 74 million euros by selling Rashford and Hoylund. Hoylund's contract to loan Naples has a buyout option of 44 million euros (£40 million) and the team's qualifying for the Champions League will be translated into a mandatory obligation.

Italian transfer expert Fabricio Romano said: "Manchester United believes that Hoylund's conditional buyout obligation will be triggered. He is in good shape and is crucial for Napoli, and Conte also plans to regard Hoylund as the team's future core member, not only for this season, but for long-term strategic planning."

Amorin is happy for the goal of two Manchester United abandoned players: "Hoylund also scored, and I am happy for him! The same is true for Rashford. You (British media) are very critical of Hoylund, but he also scored, so we should pay attention to this."
