However, the Manchester United-owned player has not scored or assisted for Barcelona in the last two months.
On March 18, Khel Witness broadcast news Barca will decide whether to keep him or not based on his performances until the end of the season. Later that week, Hansi Flick said The attacker’s recent struggles were due to “some issues”, possibly related to his fitness.
Dirty tricks on Marcus Rashford transfer
C.A health winger Victor Munoz has emerged as a new target for Barcelona. Catalan media say that his main target is to improve the attack for next season.
Tuesday’s edition of news diary Looks at these claims and provides his opinion on Munoz and Marcus Rashford.
Although the Catalan press talks about Barça’s interest, a deal is almost impossible because of Real Madrid. they sold it Osasuna and 50% of its rights will remain intact in July 2025.
If Barcelona moves forward, the newspaper suggests Los Blancos will exercise the right of first refusal to block his move to the Camp Nou. The financial situation of the Catalan club is also unlikely to allow them to spend big on him.
The newspaper says: ‘Within the board of Osasuna, there is a belief that this media “noise” around Victor Munoz is nothing more than a smokescreen to put pressure on Marcus Rashford.’
Barca want to take the Manchester United player on a permanent deal.
Add News Diary: ‘By leaking Osasuna’s alleged interest in the star player, Barcelona are trying to send a message to Rashford’s camp that “we have options,” using Victor’s excellent performances as a mere bargaining chip to reduce the cost of other deals.’
Barça’s dirty tricks will have no consequences at club level
Barcelona resorting to dirty tricks to try to persuade Manchester United to lower their demand is unlikely to yield results. The buyout clause is €30m and if the Spanish side does not offer this price, Marcus Rashford will not continue at the Camp Nou.
However, the club may be able to convince the England international to accept a lower salary than his expectations. It wouldn’t be completely out of character for the Catalan club to use the Victor Munoz chatter as leverage to do so.
