Barcelona reportedly make contact with the representatives of Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford regarding a potential transfer.

Barcelona have reportedly expressed an interest in signing Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford.

Since returning from a shoulder injury, the England international has struggled for his best form, contributing just five goals in all competitions this season.

The 24-year-old has also come in for increasing scrutiny from pundits and supporters alike, while interim boss Ralf Rangnick has insisted that the attacker can depart Old Trafford in the summer if he is unhappy at his boyhood club.

According to the Manchester Evening News, Barcelona have already made contact with the player's representatives to indicate that they are monitoring the situation.

Although Rashford is effectively tied to United until 2024 due to an option in his contract, United may be prepared to consider offers when overhauling their squad ahead of 2022-23.

The report adds that Rashford, who has made 297 appearances for United since graduating from the academy, currently wants to remain at the club in the long term.
