Barcelona close in on first summer signing with 30m permanent deal for forward agreed | Barca Universal

"The English forward's notable performances - 10 goals and 11 assists so far this campaign - have strengthened Barcelona's intention to keep him beyond June 30, when his loan from Manchester United expires. For that to happen, Barça will have to activate the €30 million purchase clause in the loan agreement with the Red Devils, which they have decided to do."

"While there were some talks of the Blaugrana not being ready to pay the full amount, they are now ready to meet the agreed-upon price for the England international. What's more, the report further states that even the payment formula with Manchester United has already been agreed: three annual instalments of €10 million."

"There will be no need to negotiate anything with Rashford's representatives because everything was already agreed with him when the loan deal was finalised last July. That means Barça do not need to present a new offer, as the financial terms were already established when his arrival on loan was completed."

Marcus Rashford is on track for a permanent transfer to Barcelona after impressing during his loan from Manchester United with 10 goals and 11 assists this season. Barcelona has decided to activate the €30 million purchase clause included in the loan agreement. The payment structure with Manchester United has been finalized as three annual installments of €10 million each. All contractual terms with Rashford were previously agreed upon during the initial loan deal in July, eliminating the need for fresh negotiations. The final approval depends on ensuring the transfer complies with La Liga's Financial Fair Play regulations, which will be assessed based on contract length and salary details.
