Barcelona have made a \u2018new proposal\u2019 for the signing of Marcus Rashford and amid conflicting reports, TEAMtalk can reveal what response Manchester United will give.<\/p>\n
In an ideal world, Marcus Rashford<\/a> would sign for Barcelona<\/a> outright this summer. The winger wants to re-join, Barcelona and manager, Hansi Flick, want Rashford back, and Man Utd<\/a> want to sell.<\/p>\n An option to buy worth \u20ac30m \/ \u00a326m in Rashford\u2019s loan makes things even simpler, but when it comes to Barcelona and transfers these days, it\u2019s never straightforward.<\/p>\n Barcelona are still struggling financially and don\u2019t want to pay full price. Thus far, Man Utd have insisted it\u2019s full price or they\u2019ll find another buyer who is willing to pay \u20ac30m, or perhaps even a little bit more.<\/p>\n But according to a shock report from The Independent<\/a>, Man Utd may finally be relaxing their stance regarding a second loan.<\/p>\n Barcelona would rather sign Rashford for a reduced fee, or even more preferably, secure a second loan that contains either an option or obligation to buy.<\/p>\n Per the report, a second loan is now a distinct \u2018possibility\u2019, and club-to-club talks in the hopes of finding a satisfactory resolution are set to re-open next week.<\/p>\n However, these claims fly in the face of what TEAMtalk has consistently been told by sources close to the situation.<\/p>\n Want more breaking transfer lines from original sources?

United aren\u2019t fussy who they sell to, and would be willing to do business with the Gunners.<\/p>\n As such, Man Utd have no intention of accepting a second loan, and that\u2019s a stance that has now been backed up by the Manchester Evening News<\/a>.<\/p>\n The outlet insisted Barcelona are making another loan offer for Rashford, and that the \u2018new proposal\u2019 will be officially put to United next week. It will be rejected.<\/p>\n On Friday, they declared: \u2018United have no interest in sanctioning another loan, with the club keen to remove Rashford\u2019s substantial wages from their books.<\/p>\n \u2018United are expected to reject Barcelona\u2019s attempts to extend the loan and remain unwilling to reduce the agreed transfer fee \u2013 meaning Hansi Flick\u2019s side must pay \u00a326m or risk losing the forward.\u2019<\/p>\n Speaking last week, Rashford reaffirmed his strong desire is to play for Barcelona again next year.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m not a magician, but if I was, I would stay [at Barcelona],\u201d he said after his exceptional free-kick helped Barca beat Real Madrid and secure the LaLiga title. \u201cWe will see. I came here to win.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is a wonderful team, they\u2019re going to win so much in the future; to be a part of that would be special.\u201d<\/p>\n
