Jose Mourinho is being linked with a return to Real Madrid to replace Alvaro Arbeloa as manager and is being tipped to make a move for Marcus Rashford this summer.
Rashford is coming to the end of his loan deal with the Catalan giants and his future is uncertain. The forward has made it clear he wants to stay, but financial issues mean that may not be possible.
Journalist Miguel Delaney has been pondering the situation and thinks that if Mourinho does return to the Santiago Bernabeu he may try to bring
Rashford with him.
“If there is significant change, though, some sources close to the situation say Mourinho may add even more intrigue by going for Marcus Rashford,” he wrote on his Inside Football Newsletter (h/t United in Focus).
“It was reported by the Independent on Thursday that Barcelona face protracted re-negotiation with Manchester United on the forward.
“Mourinho has an existing good relationship with Rashford and there is a feeling he would love to do it for two reasons: one to get a good player he knows; two to already cause disruption as well as a few problems for Barcelona.”
Rashford and Mourinho worked together previously at Manchester United and a move to the Spanish capital would see him link up with fellow Englishmen Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jude Bellingham.
But would Rashford be prepared to make what would be a controversial move after a season at Barcelona?
