<p>Wantaway United forward Rashford has reportedly set his sights on <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/marcus-rashford-priority-destination-revealed-barcelona-man-utd-shortlist-deadline/blt6e546b2277f51796" target="_blank">joining Barcelona</a> following his <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ruben-amorim-marcus-rashford-comments-cost-man-utd-millions-coach-right-to-prioritise-fixing-rotten-dressing-room-culture/blt3e3fd9381979ea7c" target="_blank">ousting from the first team</a> under head coach Ruben Amorim. But the 27-year-old may have to look elsewhere after a new development.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>According to <a href="https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1885365844189798724" target="_blank"><em>Fabrizio Romano</em></a>, Barca feel a deal for Rashford is 'highly unlikely' due to their <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/barcelona-ilkay-gundogan-another-sign-joan-laporta-lever-pulling-not-worked/blt9aa2c189f2a54c2a" target="_blank">financial fair play issues</a>. He adds <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/aston-villa-marcus-rashford-move-premier-league-man-utd-barcelona/blt49ee104f4e995bd0" target="_blank">Aston Villa have enquired about the Red Devils man </a>following Jhon Duran's <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/gbp1-900-per-hour-jhon-duran-al-nassr-wages-eur77m-move-cristiano-ronaldo-al-nassr/blt09615bf4cf1d767f" target="_blank">move to Al-Nassr</a>.</p>

THE EXPLANATION

<p>Rashford, whose contract at United runs until 2028, has not played for United for nearly two months now after falling out of favour under Amorim. </p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Rashford, who has also been linked with <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/ac-milan-man-utd-serie-a-demands-marcus-rashford-loan-deal/blt69004d94121a5c21" target="_blank">AC Milan</a> and Borussia Dortmund, has until 11pm on Monday to seal a United exit before the transfer window shuts.</p>
