Athletic newspaper reported that Barca's leaders met in the past 24 hours and came to an agreement: give up the top target, Liverpool's Luis Diaz, and focus on signing Rashford from MU .
The reason given: the price tag of more than 80 million euros for Luis Diaz is too high and captain Hansi Flick supports Barca signing Rashford as a viable alternative to strengthen the team's left-wing position.
The German captain himself called to talk to Rashford about his plans for the English striker in the Barca squad.
According to the above source, Barca officially made an offer to MU through an intermediary to borrow Rashford for next season as well as with an option to buy provided by Marca worth 35 million euros.
MU is said to have agreed in principle and negotiations between all parties are in the final stages, preparing to be completed.
Rashford is among 5 MU players (along with Antony, Sancho, Garnacho, Tyrell Malacia) on the transfer list this summer and Ruben Amorim does not allow them to train with the first team.
The 27-year-old striker himself, who played for Aston Villa on loan for the second half of last season, prioritizes joining Barca and is willing to take a big pay cut to make that happen.
Signing Rashford on loan would suit Barca, who are still subject to financial restrictions under La Liga's Financial Fair Play rules.
