Marcus Rashford’s loan to Barcelona has taken a significant step closer to the finishing line after the Manchester United star agreed to a significant salary sacrifice to get a move over the line, reports in Spain have revealed.

Barcelona have reportedly found a ‘solution’ as they look to sign Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford before Monday night’s transfer deadline. Rashford is available for transfer. On New Year’s Eve, he announced that he is “ready” for a new challenge away from Man Utd.

Paul Scholes has called on Manchester United to cut ties with Marcus Rashford, who he believes should be "banished" for making the same mistake he also made.
