Barcelona sporting director Deco has spoken with the entourage of Manchester United star Marcus Rashford over a loan deal, according to Relevo.

The England international has fallen out-of-favour at the Red Devils and he has not played in the last nine games under manager Ruben Amorim.

He is free to leave on a temporary basis and Relevo claim that Deco held a meeting with the player’s entourage in Barcelona earlier in the day.

Barcelona are yet to make any formal proposal to the Red Devils. They may need an outgoing first before they can afford Rashford’s weekly wages.

Ansu Fati has been tipped to head for the exit door amid West Ham United’s interest. His departure could coincide with a possible loan for Rashford.

Borussia Dortmund are also interested in the 27-year-old ace, but the player’s preference is to join Barcelona before the transfer window closes.

Rashford could be one of three forwards leaving United. Antony is set to join Real Betis on loan while Alejandro Garnacho could be sold soon.
