Earlier this month, Mundo Deportivo reported Marcus Rashford has been identified as one of the striker targets for Barcelona and the Spanish champions have had an ‘important’ contact with the Manchester United star.
On October 27th, the same newspaper explained the Catalan club are ‘very attentive’ to the Red Devils forward and Tottenham Hotspur’s Harry Kane.
Friday’s edition of Mundo Deportivo claims the La Liga winners are aware that their next major investment has to be signing a new centre forward to take Luis Suárez’s place in the squad. The Uruguayan will turn 34 in January and his contract expires in 2021.
Paris Saint-Germain’s Kylian Mbappé is a big dream, but signing him would be difficult for Barca and signing Kane would also be a struggle.
When talking about Barcelona’s second choice targets, it’s claimed Inter Milan’s Lautaro Martínez is an option, ‘without losing sight of Marcus Rashford’.
Barca continue to monitor the England international after his ‘great start’ to the season with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side.
Rashford has seven goals and three assists in all competitions for Manchester United.
