FC Barcelona director Deco met with Marcus Rashford's agents on Monday to prepare for a permanent transfer, hoping to lower the €30 million buy clause.
The meeting included agent Arturo Canales and Kostas Theoharides, who facilitated the loan move. Barcelona wants to retain the 28-year-old forward, but Manchester United remains firm on the price. Financial constraints regarding Rashford's salary also pose a challenge for the Catalans, though the player has expressed a desire to stay.
