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.

Forward would like to join Hansi Flick’s side but Catalans’ enormous debt problems and conflict with La Liga make a deal tricky to finalise

AC Milan were considered frontrunners before dropping out of the race to sign Manchester City defender Kyle Walker instead. AS Monaco and Borussia Dortmund have also been linked. But it is now Barcelona at the forefront of the chase, and the Blaugrana are attempting to orchestrate a blockbuster swoop.
