Marcus Rashford would love to remain at Barcelona.
The 28-year-old forward – who is currently on loan from Manchester United – scored the opening goal in Barca’s 2-0 win over fierce rivals Real Madrid over the weekend, and after winning the first league title of his career, Rashford admitted that he’d love to stay in Spain.
Asked if he’d like to remain at Barcelona, Rashford – who is one of the world’s best-paid players – replied: “I don’t know, I’m not a magician but if I was, I would stay [at Barcelona].
“We will see. Football is unpredictable but for now, I will just enjoy it, live in the moment and reassess at the end of the season and see what is possible.”
Rashford insisted that he wants to stay present and enjoy winning the league with Barca.
He told ESPN: “This is the perfect way I want it to end. I’m very happy, I just want to enjoy today. I live in the moment. At the end of the season we will see.
“I came here to win and we do this so I’m very happy. It’s an incredible feeling.
“Over the season we deserved it, we were the best team. We had some bad moments but we always come back and fight to improve.”
Rashford announced his desire to leave United in December 2024, which prompted loan moves to Aston Villa and then Barca.
The forward told sports journalist Henry Winter at the time: “When I leave it’s going to be, ‘no hard feelings’. You’re not going to have any negative comments from me about Manchester United. That’s me as a person.
“If I know that a situation is already bad I’m not going to make it worse. I’ve seen how other players have left in the past and I don’t want to be that person.
“When I leave I’ll make a statement and it will be from me.”
