Manchester United's prospects of a lucrative windfall from the sale of Marcus Rashford have received a boost, with one alternative to the English forward yet to impress Barcelona. Rashford's long-term future is set to be decided shortly, with a permanent exit from Manchester United appearing increasingly likely. The 28-year-old has spent this season on loan at Barcelona, who hold an option to make the switch permanent for £26m. According to Spanish outlet Sport, bolstering the forward line is a top priority and he has alternative targets they could pursue instead of Rashford. Marcus Rashford on the Barcelona bench.
