Despite Rashford’s strong performances, Barcelona may be unable to make the transfer permanent due to financial limitations. Reports suggest the Spanish club are reluctant to activate the £26 million purchase option included in the loan agreement.
As a result, Arsenal could emerge as a serious contender for the forward’s signature. Manager Mikel Arteta is believed to be looking for attacking reinforcements this summer, and Rashford’s experience and versatility make him an attractive option.
If Barcelona decide against a permanent deal, Rashford could return to the Premier League, with Arsenal closely watching developments surrounding the Manchester United star.
