Manchester United forward willing to slash £315k-a-week wages for Camp Nou move, leaving Aston Villa’s permanent deal in doubt*
Marcus Rashford is prepared to take a major pay cut on his staggering £315,000-a-week salary to force a move away from Manchester United—but his preferred destination could dash Aston Villa’s hopes of keeping him.
The 27-year-old, currently on loan at Villa Park, has reportedly set his sights on a blockbuster switch to Barcelona. According to Express Sport, Rashford is so eager to join the Catalan giants that he’s willing to make “significant sacrifices” to secure the deal.
While Villa hold an option to sign Rashford permanently at the end of his loan spell, negotiations have yet to begin. The delay could prove costly, with Barcelona now emerging as strong contenders for the England international’s signature.
Manchester United, who have Rashford under contract until 2028, are believed to be demanding around £40 million for his transfer. But even if a fee is agreed, his hefty wages remain a potential stumbling block—unless Rashford’s willingness to accept a lower salary smooths the path for Barcelona.
With several European clubs monitoring the situation, Rashford’s future remains uncertain. But one thing is clear: if he gets his way, the Camp Nou could be his next destination—even if it means leaving money on the table.
