Marcus Rashford’s loan spell at Barcelona is up and running<\/p>\n
Marcus Rashford has taken to Instagram after making his second appearance for Barcelona on Thursday afternoon.<\/p>\n
The 26-year-old was a half-time substitute in the La Liga champions’ 7-3 win over K-League outfit FC Seoul in South Korea.<\/p>\n
Rashford, who joined Barcelona on loan from Manchester United<\/a> earlier this month, marked his second appearance for his new side with an assist.<\/p>\n Posting to Instagram after the game on Thursday, the England international said: “Second game, second W. Thanks Seoul for the love.”<\/p>\n Thursday’s game in the Far East also saw Rashford reunited with former team-mate and close friend Jesse Lingard, who plays for the South Korean side. Lingard, 32, played 81 minutes at the Seoul World Cup Stadium.<\/p>\n Content cannot be displayed without consent<\/p>\n England international Rashford has not played for United since December 2024 after falling out of favour under Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford<\/a>.<\/p>\n The forward spent the second half of last season at Aston Villa, where he regained both form and fitness ahead of making the switch to Camp Nou this summer.<\/p>\n After signing for the Spanish giants earlier this month, Rashford said: “I’m very excited. It’s a club where people’s dreams come true, they win big prizes.<\/p>\n “What the club stands for means a lot for me. I feel like I’m at home and a big factor in my choice to come here is because it is a family place and a good place for good players to showcase their skills.<\/p>\n “Another factor is the conversations I had with [Hansi Flick] were positive. What he did last season was terrific. To lead such a young team to a very successful season and come back to pre-season and still want to do more, it shows me everything I thought I knew about the club and it’s everything I wished.<\/p>\n “I’m eager to learn the Barcelona way.”<\/p>\n Here at The Manchester Evening News, we are dedicated to bringing you the best Manchester United<\/a> coverage and analysis.<\/p>\n Make sure you don’t miss out on the latest United news by joining our free WhatsApp group.
