Deco Hails Rashford Revival as Barcelona Consider £26–30m Buy Option

Deco credits reduced pressure for the forward’s resurgence, with any bargain move hinging on Barcelona’s finances and a decision later in the season.

Overview

  • Rashford has produced six goals and nine assists for Barcelona this season, with multiple reports listing him as the top assist provider in Europe’s top five leagues.
  • Barcelona hold a non‑mandatory option to buy in the £26–30m range, and Deco has said there is no penalty if the clause is not exercised.
  • Club finances and La Liga registration limits remain the main obstacles, with a final call expected toward season’s end, reportedly around May.
  • PSG have tracked the situation, but a move is now described as unlikely by reporter Ben Jacobs, and a mooted Bradley Barcola swap stems from a single Spanish report.
  • The loanee made his first appearance at the renovated Camp Nou in a 3-1 win over Alaves, underscoring his strong integration under Hansi Flick.
