Rashford: 'I'm a big fan of Real Madrid and Barcelona'

"Other than [Manchester] United? I'm a big fan of Real Madrid and Barcelona because they've always had great players and played attractive football. Everybody watches Real Madrid and Barcelona," Manchester United star Marcus Rashford has told the Guardian.

"The possibility of playing abroad? I would never say no," the Englishman added.

Rashford has been one of the Premier League's best players of the past years. This season, the 23-year-old forward has bagged 21 goals and provided 15 assists across all competitions.

The winger's current deal with the Red Devils runs until July 2023, with the club having an option of extending it for one more year.

Rashford reportedly backed out of negotiations with Barcelona before penning long-term United contract

Marcus Rashford was on the radar of FC Barcelona before securing his future at Manchester United but the forward opted not to deal with the Spanish club.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Barca sounded off the player's brother (also his agent) over a possible move to Camp Nou last year just as his contract was expiring at Old Trafford.

The report suggests that the Spanish club hoped that Rashford would put pressure on United to force through a move, but he just backed out of negotiations with them.

He had ‘doubts’ about changing countries at this point of his career and was not about to take the risk of going to a club where he perhaps wouldn’t be a regular starter.
