Marcus Rashford has already landed in warm water with Barcelona manager Hansi Flick in a movement that reflects the problems with which the 27-year-old was confronted with Manchester United, according to a report from Spain.
A dream movement
Rashford entered a seasonal loan at Barcelona in the summer after a public fall-out with red Devils’ head coach Ruben Amorim.
The former sports manager – who arrived in November to replace Erik ten Hag – kept the problems with Rashford’s attitude and professionalism in the training and chose to drop him for the Manchester Derby.
Rashford’s answer was to release an unauthorized interview a few days after the match stated its intention to leave United. This was not well received by the executive or the coaching staff of Old Trafford.
Rashford would not play again under Amorim and a hastily advanced loan agreement to Aston Villa was punished at the end of the winter transfer window.
The graduated Academy enjoyed a mini-resurge under the supervision of Unai Emery in Villa Park and earned a recall from the English team under the new manager Thomas Tuchel. But Rashford retained the hope for a “dream movement” to Barcelona, which also showed interest in January, but could not afford to close a deal.
However, this changed in the summer, after Rashford returned to Old Trafford after Villa chose not to exercise the £ 40 million purchase option.
This led to United forced to accept a loan to Barcelona, instead of the permanent exit -indeos to take action for the club’s most paid player, because Rashford’s heart was completed on Catalonia.
From hero to zero
Rashford has experienced a quiet start for life in Camp Nou with only a lonely assist to his opening of five performances for the Blaugrana.
But this took a dramatic turn after the 27-year-old attacker was trusted by Flick for his first return to England when Barcelona was in Newcastle in a pulsating Champions League-equal game in St James’ Park.
Despite an inconsistent version in the first half, Rashford exploded in the second with a well-tackled header, followed by a spectacular long-distance attempt to set up his adopted side two-zero-a triumphanty moment on English soil for the English international.
This would be expected to be the clear start of a new chapter in Rashford’s career in Spain; An important moment when he built in his next appearance in a Barcelona shirt, because Flick would clearly have no choice but to start him against Getafe after such a performance.
Except when the team magazines were announced before tonight’s game, Rashford was striking on the couch, with Ferran Torres taking his place on the left wing.
Spanish outlet Sports world (as passed on by Barca Universal) reveals that the attacker was fell as “punishment” because he was too late to train.
“According to Mundo Deportivo, Rashford was that he was against Getafe a form of penalties distributed by Flick after the English attacker was too late for training.
Earlier this morning the on-Loan Manchester United Forward arrived a bit late in training. As a result, Flick has decided to omit him from the start of eleven. ‘
“This is not new for Flick, who has been consistent with his sentence for players who have trained. In the past, the German tactic has enforced such penalties on players such as Jules Kounde, Inaki Pena and most recently, Raphinha, who is one of the candidates to win the Ballon d’Or this month.
“Because Rashford does not start and Lamine Yamal is injured, Flick has chosen to start with both Ferran and Lewandowski.”
Although the skills of Rashford have never been doubted – as Amorim declared openly when the attacker was still in Old Trafford – the question marks about his attitude and application of these talents remains very contrary to discussion.
